re: #687 BryanS

If the guy busted his knee in the course of doing work, workmens comp should be covering it. I guess a lot of those laws and rules vary by state, but if the injury was related to the job the guy was doing and if that was in Wisconsin, there is no doubt workmens comp would have to cover any procedure deemed necessary by a competent doctor.

It was work related… but I know for a fact that Colorado workman’s comp will fight tooth and nail to DENY claims. Back in 89-90, I was part owner of a company, and I had to deal with workman’s comp on a number of occasions, I ran handy men around the state doing minor maintenance on foreclosed properties… WC tried as hard as they could to NOT pay claims… no matter what.
