Legal Question in Workers Comp in Virginia

Worker's Comp

My brother was riding on the back of a trash truck at work and the blade that packs the trash was engaged and his had was caught inside. He had surgery and now doing physical therapy on the hand. The insurance company paid him one check for the fisrt week he was out. He has not received any more payments because he missed a few appointments due to transportation issues. (couldn't drive with left hand only) He was out of work for 1.5 months and has returned to work on light duty /one handed.
