A:
ONLY the Workers Comp Insurance adjuster 'closes' a workers comp claim, never an employment agency.
BBSI is an employment agency that has it's own adjusting service in northern california, so you might have been with BBSI. The BBSI adjusting service is separate from the employment offices that employ people.
The adjuster CAN determine you have fully recovered from all work injuries based upon you accepting a full duty assignment (with any agency) as evidence you recovered. THAT DOES NOT END YOUR CLAIM.
You are entitled to reasonable treatment, to a final report from the primary treating physician (so long as that physician is on the approved list of doctors, the Medical Provider Network -- the MPN), and then if that is unfair, the Qualified Medical Evaluation. It's time to find counsel, it appears obtaining these from this insurer is going to prove impossible for a person trying to represent themselves.
