employer dropped medical aftter an injury?
CARL G H asked:
I was injurred on the job and less than 2 weeks later they had dropped my medical without notifying me. I’t wasn’t a company supplied medical program but purchased under the owners coverage and I payed the majority of the premium my self. where do I stand?
the problem is while seing the workers comp doctor for the injury he discovered possible unrelated issues in the area of the injury (possible cancer) I went to my doctor to get an evaluation and found the dropped medical and wasn’t able to continue.

If you are in the US, they have to cover all work related expenses, your normal insurance shouldn’t even come in to play. It should all be handled by the employers workman’s comp policy.
