Are you aware:

 

• you may still be entitled to lost wages/medical benefits even if you have been placed at MMI?

• you may still be entitled to medical care if your doctor says there is nothing further to do?

• your Employer has an obligation to report your accident?

• you may be able to obtain a lump sum settlement?

• if the Employer and/or insurance company did not advise you of your rights, you may still be entitled to benefits?

• your benefits cannot be cut off simply because you no longer work for the employer?

• if your case was denied, you may still be entitled to medical, indemnity benefits, and/or eligible for a lump sum settlement?

 

            Workers’ compensation is governed by Florida Statutes Chapter 440.  It is designed to provide an injured worker with lost wages and medical treatment, when injured on the job.  There are times when the workers’ compensation insurance carrier will not provide you with the benefits to which you are entitled.
