Florida Work Comp System - A Fine Example of Corruption

How about if our state legislators look past the insurance company lobbyists long enough to see the devastating effects that their legislative rulings have caused for injured employees and their families?

Has anyone taken the time to look at at the horrible abuse that goes on daily to multitudes of innocent, injured workers by insurance company adjustors in Florida through holding back doctor prescribed medications and treatments (causing further illnesses) in order to make an injured employee accept a low settlement that will not even cover their medications or to just give up and go away. Or how treating doctors who are "manipulated" by work comp attorneys into dropping a patient's case or diagnosis, so that a hired doc who is insurance friendly can write a report the way the insurance company wants it to read?

Just how many of these innocent people have given up by ending their own lives? That lets the insurance company off the financial hook!

Are there any legislators who care about the injured - or do the injured not have enough money to contribute to political campaigns?

Well, I think it is time to start looking at some of these tactics and some of those who are involved in the abuse of innocent, injured employees! Stay Tuned!!!
