INSTRUCTIONS TO EMPLOYEE ­ THIS REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION You are responsible for reviewing this form to make sure that you have been properly paid the benefits due you. YOU DO NOT NEED TO TAKE ANY ACTION IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED ALL BENEFITS DUE OR THAT THE REDUCTION OF BENEFITS IS PROPER. If Box 1 or 2 is checked above and you believe that your benefits should be reinstated due to an occurrence during the initial 14 calendar days after your return to work, you may request a conference. Your request must be received by the Workers' Compensation Division within 30 calendar days after the date that you returned to work. If Box 3 is checked above and you think the reason for stopping your benefits is incorrect, or you disagree with the proposed discontinuance, you may request a conference. Your request must be received within 12 calendar days after this notice is received by the Workers' Compensation Division. TO REQUEST A CONFERENCE, YOU MUST MAIL OR DELIVER THE ATTACHED FORM TO THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION DIVISION SO THAT IT IS RECEIVED WITHIN THE ABOVE TIME LIMITS. TELEPHONE REQUESTS WILL ALSO BE ACCEPTED AT (651) 361-7912 OR 1-800-342-5354. The conference will be scheduled within 10 calendar days of the date your request is received by the Division. You, your employer, and the insurer will be invited to attend. You are not required to bring an attorney, but may bring one if you wish. You should bring to the conference any current reports and return-to-work restrictions, if available. You may instead file an Objection to Discontinuance with the Division. This is a formal procedure before a compensation judge which takes longer than the administrative conference process and usually requires an attorney. If you do this, your benefits will stop on the date stated in this notice and will not be paid during the time you wait for the hearing.
