Reopening
 A claim for Maryland workers compensation benefits can be reopened at a later date if the application for reopening is made within 5 years of the date of the last compensation payment and there is ample evidence to support the reopening and worsening of the workers condition.
In the District of Columbia, after having received monetary benefits pursuant to a formal valid order, the claimant must file for a worsening of condition within one year from the date of the last compensation payment or within three years of the claim is for loss of earning capacity. No further temporary total disability payments will be allowed.
