So your wc claim isn't finalized yet, just the QME agreed it was work related.
I think the next step is for them to see if any job can be a fit for you. Some companies will make a job and sometimes they will prefer to cut you loose, but then they risk a larger payout. and possibly an increase in wc ins premiums if too many injuries.

Do you & they have a written document with your drs restrictions for what you can and can't do and how many hrs per day, days per week etc.?

my former employers had a security guard on the night shift that had bad knees and a hip problem, about all he did was answer the phones at the front desk.

If at all possible try to keep your foot in the door so as to keep benefits as long as you can...
but if your claim is accepted now and they can't find a job for you then you should get wc payments.

I don't know about the LTD/wc pay or any offsets - I don't know how that part works.
