Re: Workers Compensation
1. go to a list doctor who is an orthopaedic specialist. 2. have that doctor indicate on a prescription slip whether you may return to work, should only work reduced hours, take off for complete rest, do physical therapy, or any combination of the above.
i understand that you have not missed work because you are a trooper. seems like your medical bills are being paid no problem. should you begin to lose time from work, then your will need to file a Petition through a lawyer.
so Lawyer up (if all goes well with the doctor). expect to pay a 20% fee for monies recovered.
good luck.
