Workers' Comp During a Pandemic

Covid-19 has changed a lot of things for all of us. But for injured workers, the pandemic has also meant longer delays and new steps in order to get treatment, benefits, and even their day in court. By this point, both the Maryland Workers' Compensation Commission and the D.C. Office of Workers' Compensation have begun rescheduling and holding hearings.  D.C. hsa opted for a fully virtual system, with video hearings.  Maryland has opted to hold socially distant workers' compensation hearings in the same locations as they have in the past.
