Wayne Freeman, who worked as a car hauler for United Road Services, Inc., sought medical benefits for a right-rotator-cuff injury he said developed from overusing his right arm following a compensable left-shoulder injury. Freeman testified that his right arm “hurt like crazy” after unloading cars in Kingsport, Tenn., on April 6, 2024, which was the last day he worked before his left-shoulder surgery. However, he did not notify United Road Services or ACE American Insurance Co. of the right-arm injury until May 1 and May 2, 2024 – 25 days after the incident.
