\"Welcome<\/a>Your temporary total disability check is processed each week by the workers\u2019 compensation insurance carrier, and the check is usually processed on the same day, e.g. Friday, each week.\u00a0 As a result, you can anticipate consistently receiving your temporary total disability check around the same day each week.<\/p>\n

If you do not receive your weekly check from the workers\u2019 compensation insurance company, you may want to wait a couple of days before contacting your workers\u2019 compensation attorney<\/a>.\u00a0 Often a delay is caused by the insurance company having a glitch in processing the check for the week or it may simply be a delay caused by the postal service.\u00a0 If you have not received your check within a couple of days of the date it is expected, contact your workers\u2019 compensation attorney\u2019s office to let them know the check has not arrived.\u00a0 Your attorney will contact the workers\u2019 compensation insurance claims adjuster to determine the status of your temporary total disability check.\u00a0 The problem is usually quickly corrected and the check arrives within a couple of days.<\/p>\n

Although the delay can is frustrating and may even impact your ability to pay your bills, it is rare that an insurance company intentionally delays the payment of temporary total disability. \u00a0However, if the check has not been received in a reasonable period of time, your workers\u2019 compensation attorney can file a motion with the Executive Secretary\u2019s Office of the North Carolina Industrial Commission requesting a 10% late penalty be assessed against the employer.\u00a0 The Industrial Commission is obviously concerned if an employer or their insurance company is not paying workers\u2019 compensation checks on a timely basis.\u00a0 As a result, contact your attorney if there is ongoing problem with receiving your temporary total disability checks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
