Good Luck! I'm in the same "workers comp" boat. I prefer a local doctor in NYC but I also would like a Maverick disk so I may have to play the waiting game until the Maverick is approved by the FDA. I'm wondering how you got approval since the Cherite is the only approved disk. I have Liberty Mutual workers comp...
