문의내용: Workers Compensation - How to File a Workers Compensation Claim

If an employee gets hurt at work it is important to notify the employer promptly. This helps avoid problems and delays in receiving workers' compensation benefits.

Workers compensation benefits typically comprise medical treatment as well as vocational rehabilitation services and disability payments. The amount and duration of these benefits vary from state to state.

Medical Treatment

When you are injured while working, medical treatment is a crucial part of your workers claims for compensation. This type of insurance coverage provides for doctor visits, hospital stays imaging studies (x-rays) and blood tests and the cost of rehabilitation therapies.

To encourage objective healing and achieve the goal of returning to work, New York State Workers' Comp Board sets medical treatment guidelines (MTGs). These guidelines are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in the medical field and physician recommendations.

These guidelines are meant to ensure that an injured worker receives the same treatment as other workers who suffer similar injuries or illnesses. They also help ensure that the treatment is appropriate for the particular injury or illness and that there are no unnecessary or unnecessary medical expense.

In the event that a doctor determines that a treatment that is not in the MTGs is necessary the doctor can seek a variance from the insurance company, asking for a specific exception to the MTGs. This is a long process that can take a number of months to complete.

If treatment is required the employer or insurer should take every step to provide the treatment. If there is disagreement between the employer and the employee, it could be possible to not be able to provide the treatment. This issue is often resolved by an evidentiary hearing before an administrator law judge.

The treatment should be provided by licensed local health provider who is licensed to provide workers' compensation treatment. In urgent situations however, a non-licensed or uncertified doctor may be able to treat worker's injuries if they have been notified of the accident and completed the necessary initial injury report.

A business can incur indirect costs as a result of employee injuries as well as workers compensation. Costs like the period during which an employee is off work or the cost of hiring a replacement worker could also be included in these indirect costs.

Another indirect cost is the cost of the repair or replacement of equipment or property that was damaged during an injury-causing incident. This is a significant expense to any business, and is common for companies that use heavy-duty equipment or equipment.
