In Maryland, the state legislature has decided (correctly) that, because police officers put their lives on the line for Maryland residents, officers are entitled to higher compensation than other Maryland workers when hurt on the job. In addition to higher compensation, police officers may be entitled to heart disease injury compensation or high blood pressure compensation.
This doesnāt mean that the County or State insurance covering and managing your police officer injury case will treat you fairly or secure the medical treatment that you need to get back to protecting the people youāve been sworn to serve.
