The only way to be sure is to see the claim form. You should also find out the date on which the claim form was sent to the insurance company. Some companies attempt to avoid paying penalties by back date-stamping materials so as to make it appear that they are complying with the time deadlines when they are not. Under the workers’ compensation statute, your employer is required to send you a copy of its notice to the insurer. Demand one if you don’t receive it.
