Governor Bob Taft, Ripoff To Injured Workers ripoff Columbus Ohio

Board Of Directors Meeting BWC
My Opinion and facts Friday March 20 2009 at 8am in room 3 level 2 of the William Green Building located at 30 W.Spring St. Columbus Ohio Chairman Bill Lhota also SI directors the guy that is to make sure the Self-insured company's follow the laws.I for one will be asking why he lets the company's like Honda take your meds all the time over and over again.Its like a Torture game they play.Please try to be there so when the room that this meeting is at gets full of injured workers asking why they are treated like they are they can tell us. Also they are trying to get somethings changed and we need to be there for the Injured Workers of Ohio.There will be people there for the SI company's trying to get more things in that are in favor of them and for them.Who will be there for the injured workers if we don't show up. I will tell you NO ONE!! There is NO ONE for the injured workers of Ohio at self-insured company to turn to for help.Its the injured workers themselfs taking on these muti-million dollar company's who can torture there injured workers to the point of ALMOSTBROKEN.com We can make a change if we work together for it is TIME FOR A CHANGE OHIO!!

Thanks to Gov.Ted Strickland

I would like to thank our new Gov. Strickland for checking into the workings of the Ohio BWC for the Ohio injured worker!As my opinions in my earlyer posts I felt there was something wrong with the way our claim was handled.After reading in the paper about the Lack of oversight, management blamed for scandal, in the Bellefontaine Examiner 3/27/07. I was glad to see that the Auditer Mary Taylors statements where she checked the Ohio Bureau of Worker Compensation out.Mrs.

Taylors office also found during the routine review of operations for 2005 and 2006 that some key financial documents had been destroyed. To me this backs my opinions of what was going on at the BWC and the handling of our claim.Thanks again Gov.Ted Strickland for checking into this for the injured workers of Ohio,and keep up the good work!!

The Plaintiff's lawyer sold out by taking the easy money (settlement) rather than taking a chance on winning more in court. This is how "trial lawyers" operate, it's always about money to them. So they are easily bought, and justice needn't prevail. If you think the guy on the back cover of the Yellow Pages cares a whit about justice, well...

Honda Expert Caught Destroying Evidence
The public is baraged by attacks on the civil justice system. Most often, those attacks are made by politicians who rely on big business and the insurnace industry for their political life.

Rarely are the antics of big business in litigation exposed.

Now, thanks to the fine legal team at Trial Lawyers for Public Justice a devastating opinion from a judge against Honda and one of its experts has been unsealed.

TV screenwriters could not have written a more rivetting plot. A 17 year old girl is tragically injured in an accident, allegedly as a result of a defective roof on a Honda vehicle. The issue of whether she was wearing her seat belt is critical to the case and, according to this opinion, Honda's expert witness set out to destroy evidence which would have shown that the seat belts were being worn, then lied about it.

The story doesn't end there. After the court sanctions Honda big time (by saying in essence "you lose this case," Honda settles the case and gets the incriminating order sealed. This expert is allowed to go on testifying in other cases, and no one else is told of his dirty deeds.
In my opinion this sounds like the two Honda Doc.s in our case!!25 or so say my wife was injured at work,but two Honda Doc.s belittled her injury!!They will get caught someday!!
Not anymore!

Thanks to our new Gov.Ted Stickland who is checking out what I have been saying in my opinion what has been going on while Ex-Gov.Taft was in office!It will all be coming out now that his people cant cover for him anymore.Isnt it strange Taft leaves the USA right after he is out of office.Maybe I was not wrong after all and my opinion was right on the MONEY!!!

In my opinion of Gov. Taft I my be wrong! I would have thought by now that there would be more people giving there opinion of Mr.Taft and be in the same opinion of how the state is helping the injured workers!With the coin gate deal it all made my opinion seem that there was more going on!Because I am the only one on the web page maybe I am wrong about Gov.Bob Taft!

After our ten year fight with Honda it seemed to me that he was helping Honda!I know Honda is giving Ohio alot, with jobs for the people which makes Ohioans make there lifes better!We where hopeing to live the good life like everyone who workers at Honda! In my opinion Hondas management is not doing a very good job of takeing care of there injured workers! This will be my last post on Gov. Taft since I am the only one with this Opinion of him!If I am wrong I am sorry!

To convince Honda to locate in Ohio, the state gave Hondaincentives worth over $60 million to build its Marysville complex. As part of the deal, Honda won't have to pay property taxes for 15 years. The Marysville plant led the boom in Honda's U.S. sales that has permanently changed the shape of the industry. Today, in American passenger car sales, the Big Three are G.M., Ford and Honda.
My Opinion,
If they can do this for Honda why not help Ford and GM

Thank you for using the Feedback Box.

BWC no longer publishes the self-insured guideline rulebook which you request. The guidelines can now be found on BWC's website, www.ohiobwc.com. You can find them on the main menu page by clicking on OHIO EMPLOYEES, then SELF-INSURED, then SI CLAIMS PROCEDURE GUIDE to SI CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION.

I have contacted Honda's Third Party Administrator, Brad Sinnott (614) 464-8278, in regards to your question about the medication Sonata. Brad told me that because you have an attorney handling your case, he prefers to contact your attorney with his response/answer to your question. Please remember that you can always file a C-86 Motion (which can be downloaded at our website) to request authorization for medications. If the request is rejected by the employer, you will be scheduled for a hearing on the matter, in the Industrial Commission. Because your claim is self-insured, BWC has no jurisdiction over the authorizations of the medications.

Again, thank you for the Feedback Box inquiry.

If you have no computer sorry about your luck!!

In my opinion,To all workers at self-insured companys, beware!!!The Gov. has aloud the big companys the right to self-insure there employees! This means they get to make the rules as the go on your injured workers claims. For example if you are injured they have the right to refuse treatment so you have to fight through BWC and IC to get treatment for your injury that you got at there company!!This is a joke!! We have been fighting for ten year and two bankruptcy later and still dont have a settlement yet!

As a self-insured company you have to go through BWC and get a settlement form and the company you work for has to ok the settlement price befor you can send the form in!! So all the company has to do is offer you what ever they fell like! In our case it was 5,000 for an injury that made me disabled for life!! Everyone knows thats a joke!!But by the self-insured law pur-Brad at BWC,We have to agree on the settlement before we can file form for one!! What kind of a law is that!I will tell you it is for the big companies that give big money to Gov.Campaines!!

Thats all the Gov. cares about not the person who gets injured but the companys that give big money to there campaines!! Thats how this self-insured law came into effect, so if you work at a self-insured company like Honda Beware!! Because you are about to get nothing and no help from any Gov. Office in Ohio if you get injured!

So who is paying for the companys injured workers, The tax payer not the company that injured the worker!! It must be nice for the big companes to have the Gov.taking care of them like this!! We are sorry that you the tax payer has to take care of the self-insured injured workers!!We are living off of our SSD and losing every thing we have worked so hard in life to get! This is not right so call your Senators and tell them it is time for a change!!

Sen Marc Dann is the only person so for that has see this injustice and is helping use and he has my vote on any new spot in goverment he wishes to run for!!Someone who cares for the injured worker and not big companys campaine money!! I hope to be writing a book about self-insured companys from our ten year fight, and how they get away with murder!! Thanks
