New York State Insurance Fund NYSIF does not pay Injuried Volunteer EMS Worker Melville, New York

This is the complaint I filed with the NYS Insurance Department:

I am a volunteer EMS ambulance worker for over 20 years had never filed a workers
compensation claim in my life.  On 1/23/2010 I was injuried while responding to
a EMS call in which I DO NOT RECEIVE A PAY CHECK.  At this time I am fighting for my
benfits, my department(EMPLOYER) has repeatedly told the carrier I was injuried
in course of employment but the carrier keeps fighting it.  I understand that
the carrier is to protect us, an if they want to argue pre-extisting injuries
but the fact remains I was injuried responding to a volunteer EMS call.  This is
unjust and unfair treatment of a volunteer that I have given my community over
20 years.  My Neck condition is becoming worst and the WCB board just had there
secong hearing on 9/20 note 8 months later.  And we are still debating the fact
that I was injuried on a call.  The curren Chief of the department was deposed
and stated I was hurt on a EMS call.  This is all very unbelivable.  I have
several awards form Congressman, Senator
s and Assemblyman.  Matter of fact you can contact Senator Brian Foley office. 
He is now involved in this mismangament of my claim.  And you also call
Assemblyman Fred Thiele\'s office.  Thanks for your time
