What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Kentucky
I am inquiring on the whole comp procedure. I have been injured at work 4 times since 2000 and the plant physician stated that it was personal reasons and would not open workman's comp claims. I have a copy of all my records now because I found out that another individual had the same injury from their job that I did, had surgery and then was covered by Workman's comp. Why is it that I get hurt and don't get comp for it but someone else doing the same job and has the same injury I did get it? I am not sure what I should do to persue this if it needs to be persued. Another injury at work happened and when I had to see a specialist they denied comp to the doctor's office.
The plant physician has been known to be a "quack" so to speak...but what do I do? Should I follow this up with a lawyer or is it too late? I keep thinking that I should wait until I am hurt on the job again and have them say that it wasn't job-related and then take all of my records to a lawyer. What do you think I should do. It is really sad that some people can get comp and other's have to suffer.
PLEASE HELP> I don't know where to start.
