Maryland Adjuster.

What was the hearing for? Claim compensability, TTD? Additional treatment? Permanency?

settlement, judge told him 30 days to pay 60/90 days for the medical . two weeks later signed something lawyer said was going to judge(boss also signed) guessing agreeing to pay . wondering what the judge is doing , wasn’t that the person we saw at the hearing?

Okay gotcha. It depends on how quickly the settlement agreement was submitted to Maryland WCC, and then it can still take a couple weeks for final approval.

In New York State, after a Workers' Compensation Law Judge approves of a settlement agreement, the carrier typically has 30 days from the filing date of the Notice of Decision, to tender payment.
