OMA Defends Dillon Supreme Court Decision Benefiting Employers

This week, the OMA submitted a joint letter defending a recent ruling from the Ohio Supreme Court that simplified the process for employers to recoup overpayments when an injured worker reaches maximum medical improvement (MMI) after collecting temporary total disability (TTD) benefits.

This change is expected to reduce claim costs for employers in Ohio. However, it remains uncertain whether the decision will stand or if legislative changes will follow. 4/26/2024
