thanks for replies
The letter states: We are in the process of obtaining authority to settle your claim by way of Compromise and Release. Attached you will find a Consent for Release of Information form and Social Security release requiring your signature. These forms will be used to determine whether you are currently or soon will become entitled to any Medicare or SSDI benefits. This is a necessary step in the process to determine if a Medicare Set-Aside Allocation will be needed in your case. Once received, we will submit the signed release to First Health.
I have been receiving SSDI since 2000 and have Medicare part A and B. I have been recommended by at least 3 reputable surgeons to have fusion at L5S1 and ADR at L4. I do not think this makes me MMI but rather that would be determined after surgery.
I called Frank Hakim's office ans~left the most coherent message possible
