I came to an agreement for compensation with the insurance company (or judge ordered the insurance company to pay me compensation). How soon do they have to pay me?
Compensation must be be paid within two weeks of knowledge from any source that payment is due. An exception is made for employees of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and for employees receiving benefits from the Workers’ Compensation Trust Fund, whose checks may take a bit longer. Q: The insurance company sent me to their doctor for evaluation, and now they won’t send me a copy of the report. Do I have a right to that report? A: An injured worker may invoke Sec. 20 or 30A of the MA workers’ comp law, which requires the insurer to provide a copy of the report. Also, the employee can invoke the Patient Bill of Rights.
