The insurer is closing my claim, but I am not better or I still need medication – why?

There may come a point where you are “medically stationary” but not necessarily better. Once you are deemed stationary, your employer’s insurance company will still move to close your workers’ compensation claim. Note this does not necessarily mean you will stop receiving all workers’ compensation benefits. Depending on your medical condition, you may be entitled to permanent disability benefits as part of the closing process.
