Looks like they disagree with the AME.
I hope you are keeping n contact with your atty.
Me too. How can they use P&S as a means to stop TTD when surgery is approved? Was AME not aware PTP was requesting surgery or did not comment on need for surgery? Also, still confused if they allowed IW to RTW with restrictions from AME and IW refused due to new restriction from PTP?
Was surgery approved by insurance carrier in writing? Asking just in case it is being done on a lien without IW knowledge (have seen it in the past but not so much now).
It looks like the re-injury may not have been accepted by IC (unknown). Did it happen at work? 1171 if re-injury happened at home is this generally covered or disputed by carriers? I am curious myself.
I am not an attorney.Anything I write should not be considered legal advice.I am writing from my own personal experiences,which is not from any sort of legal background. You should consult with an attorney over legal issues. In California, if you cannot get an attorney you can consult with an I&A officer.
