The workmans comp system is run for profit, so the idea is the less treatment YOU get, the more money THEY keep!.....It is ugly and needs fixing, but we live in a place and time, that corporations are people, and money is free speech....

So that makes US just a pain in their butts!
If we had single payer the goal would be us regaining and/or maintaining mobility, etc., not stiffing us, which long term imo is counter productive for all of society.

I was just rejected for more PT by WC. My goal last year was to run, hop, skip, jump,again now I will be content just to walk downstairs normally and regain the strength I lost. ( I exercise 3 days a week on a bike to keep strength in my legs, but it is not enough, I don't have enough energy after this to do anything more)

I still don't know what is the best thing to do with WC, keep my medical open or just be done with them. I have CRPS/RSD and the possibility of it spreading is the sword of damocles.
