Irregular workmans comp checks

[1171]

many states have penalty provisions for late benefits.
if yours does, you should file.
every time a check is late file for a penalty with a copy to the carrier.

keep a copy of the envelope/postmark and the check information to document.
even though the check printing/accounting is computerized most require manual approval. many require that the medical records be checked for authorization before approving.
every office, carrier, adjuster is different. there is no one answer.
obviously with so much outsourcing accountability is sacrificed.

maybe you could arrange direct deposit or personal pickup.
sometimes the the employer can have a positive influence if they called to complain.
make sure doctor notifies carrier for all time off.
