[QUOTE="!Retired!, post: 1269791, member: 24309"] You have 2 choices when you're hurt at work. 1. Report it as an workers comp claim. You will be at the mercy of FedEx's doctors. You'll go back to work when THEY say you're ready to return to work. All your medical bills will be paid. 2. Report it as a disability claim. You see your own doctor and together decide when you can go back to work. You will be responsible for your own medical bills according to whatever insurance level you have. In both cases, AETNA will pay you a percentage of your pay for as long as you are out minus the 1st 5 days. I [B]THINK[/B] disability pays slightly more, but I can't remember. I've done both for basically the same thing. Both ways worked out to be about the same....for me. Each situation is different and you need to choose which way would be best for you for that particular injury. [/QUOTE]
