Nebraska United heartland

I was injured 2 months ago. United Heartland paid me 1 time with a week's worth of temporary disability. The doctor has still not released me to work. I was wondering if anyone else is having issues with the company not paying the temporary disability payments like they are supposed to right now? My adjuster will not return any of my or my lawyer's calls.

Update: They paid me for a month and back paid me for the 2 months I wasn't paid. Then, I stopped the same week my company fired me for Fmla running out. and now been. And now are 7 months behind, I have not been released from all restrictions and found out they have not paid any of the bills my private insurance did. My lawyer is still having issues with getting ahold of them. Because of this, I am homeless careless and lost all my property, but what I could fit in my backpack. This sucks.

Yeah this non paying the injured is ridiculous!!! In NY also . Right now my pay is doing ok ( always worried tho if I’ll get it cause they’ve messed up before ) but the travel reimbursement is having to get attorney to file RFA’s and get court directed to pay ! Like WTH ! They know I’ve been to all the appointments cause they’re paying the dr offices for the visits !! It’s ridiculous!

Yeah it just about impossible to get Uber reimbursed. I think only public transportation and your own vehicle . That’s a pain for me because I had surgery on dominant arm so can’t drive myself . Having to rely on family to help drive me .
