If your benefits were terminated, you may file a Petition to Reinstate workers compensation benefits within three years after the date of your most recent workers compensation check.

If your benefits were suspended, you may file a petition to have benefits reinstated. This petition must be filed within 500 weeks from the date of suspension.

Payment of medical benefits by your employer does not mean that your claim has been accepted or reopened.
