[QUOTE="Johney, post: 5487877, member: 10995"] Be careful about getting put on light duty from your own Dr. if you do and LM denies your claim and you have to fight them it may take some time to make it through the court system, longer than the time given for light duty. Teamcare may also deny you STD as it's a workers comp issue. There was a guy in my building about 20 years ago this very same thing happened. Had to fight them and it took close to a year to get through the court systems as at the time it was a slow process. Basically cut of after 30 days of TAW and told not to return until he was 100%. Which was impossible unless he had surgery. I believe at the time it Central States who was our healthcare provider before Teamcare took over and denied covering it. He eventually won in court but had no pay or benefits for close to a year. Again this was a long time ago and most likely not the same state as you quite possibly things have changed. Just make sure you have a good attorney that deals specifically in workers comp. [/QUOTE]
