If you have suffered an on-the-job injury, the first thing you need to do is report the injury. The next thing you want to do is ask your boss if the company has a preferred doctor or hospital. If not, you are free to see your own physician, in order to get the medical care you need and document your injuries. Make sure to explain to your doctor how and when you were hurt at work.
As long as your injuries were received at work (while performing a task in the course of your job), workers compensation should cover 100% of your medical expenses. In most cases, your employer or insurance company has the right to determine who treats you, but if this is not appropriate (or there is no policy in place to make you see a preferred physician), our attorney can help you get to a different doctor. In many cases, an employer or insurance company is trying to get things done cheaply, and you will not have access to proper care. Do not panic — we are here to help.
We maintain close contact with you throughout the process, and keep you apprised about the next steps. Negotiating with an insurance company can be difficult and intimidating, but it is important to keep in mind that you are entitled to full compensation for medical expenses resulting from a workplace injury. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are ready to protect your rights in court.
