We are now transferring people from workers comp to the Health System people will sa. And so, you confuse the doctor, especially if youre out of area, you confuse the tonight. You confuse the pharmacy if you say, im getting my prescriptions filled for my workers comp. Workers cor comp pays for disability thats not permanent. You could be an active employee and be under workers comp or be eligible for a completely different position or body part than youve been awarded a workers comp. So how Health Services administer focuadminister folkss corcomp is something we dont gt involved with in making sure they get connected and theres no break in coverage for them on their medical side, but well, ive been pleaed with d people contacted me and said i have and issue and they have an advocate group for the retirees.
