Hi all:
Please accept my apologies for the lack of posts over the past 2+ weeks, however we were busy preparing for an upcoming trial.
Now that the trial pressure is over, I will figure out what to post over the next few days. If anyone has a question about Ohio work injuries or the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation, please drop a post and we will be happy to respond.
Thanks to all who are members and those who just pass through. Happy holidays to all.

Trying to settle your Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation Claim – if so, the BWC seems to be ‘anti-injured worker’ in reducing its indemnity and settlement payments.
You are Injured on the job and your claim is allowed for the injury. Then your doctor of record requests authorization for medical treatment, specialist consults, and you get a denial from your MCO. (Medical Care Organization). What do you do?
Your OhioBWC Claim is Labelled Medically Inactive – Your medical bills are not being paid – Your medical care is in limbo – What can you do now?
