If you got hurt on the job, you are entitled to get your medical treatment paid, and if you are off work for at least 2 consecutive weeks, you are entitled to lost wages (75% of your average take-home). If the doctor screws up, that is just a continuation of the workers compensation.

Are you talking about carpal tunnel syndrome? If you have had surgery then apparently you have already opened a worker comp claim. I don't understand your situation. Try again. better yet, get you a good worker comp lawyer in your county to review your situation.

Get a denial letter from the insurance company explaining why they say no. Send that to our office if the injury occurred in Montana. Otherwise, send the denial letter to an atty in your city.

Depends on how far your case has proceeded whether anything meaningful can be done. Contact an experienced Workers' Compensation attorney and get his or her opinion.
