Neck Injury Workers’ Comp Case Study
An employee from Waynesboro, working as a truck driver, sustained a work injury, which the insurance carrier, Inservco Insurance Services, denied. Matt Kaminsky of Calhoon and Kaminsky P.C., filed a Claim Petition for the injured worker in which we described his injury as a C5-C6 disc herniation with radiculopathy and requested payment of workers’ compensation wage loss benefits from the date of injury and ongoing. The insurance carrier had the injured worker attend an independent medical examination with Chad M. Rutter, D.O. in York, PA. Dr. Rutter reported that he was unable to state that the injured worker sustained a work injury or aggravated a pre-existing condition. While the case was being actively litigated, the claim ultimately resolved for $125,000 via a compromise and release.
