Probably not.
They'll decide what additional evidence and issues remain unresolved and if the carrier wants to avoid the hearing it'll be upto them to offer more.
If they do, they won,t make their offer until just before the hearing; see who flinches first.
I refuse to take what is on the table now. However, I can't keep paying out of pocket for my medical care, I have literally gone into debt from a work injury. I may be forced to take the future medical if they don't offer something higher.
