Very confused...

[rocket]

In Hawaii,

I have waited 6 months for an investigation into my injury. Went to a hearing earlier this month to get my retro pay and start my work comp payments. No ideas on the decision but last week I got a check covering the past three weeks.

Next month I am scheduled for a medical exam by my employer.
I had a MRI in May saying that I had a torn meniscus.

1) does the work comp check mean that my claim is accepted?

2) why a medical exam at this time?

Thanks for the help...

Sounds like you claim was accepted and that is why the check came. They should continue unless they find at the IME (medical exam) you do not have a torn meniscus. You had a doctor exam you, and the Insurance (employer has the right to have you examed by their doctor of choice also. [/b]
