Workers Compensation - How to File a Workers Compensation Claim

Employees who suffer injuries on the work site should report the incident immediately. This will prevent any problems and delays in receiving workers' compensation benefits.

Workers' compensation benefits typically consist of medical treatment, vocational rehabilitation services, and disability payments. The amount and duration of these benefits vary from state to state.

Medical Treatment

If you're injured while working, medical treatment is an essential component of your workers claims for compensation. This type of insurance covers hospitalizations, doctor visits and imaging studies (xrays) in addition to rehabilitation costs.

The New York State Workers' Compensation Board establishes medical treatment guidelines (MTGs) to promote objective healing and return-to-work objectives. The guidelines are regularly updated based on changes in the medical field as well as physician recommendations.

These guidelines are intended to ensure that an injured worker receives the same treatment as other employees who suffer similar injuries or illnesses. These guidelines ensure that the appropriate treatment is provided for each illness or injury and that there aren't unnecessary medical expenses.

If a doctor concludes that medical treatment is not necessary under the MTGs, he/she can request an exemption from the insurer in order to request an exception to these MTGs. This is a lengthy process that could take a few months to complete.

If the treatment is required the employer or insurer should do everything to provide the treatment. If there is disagreement between the employer and employee, it is possible for the employer or insurer to fail to provide the treatment. This is usually resolved by an evidentiary hearing before an administrator law judge.

Typically, treatment should be provided by a licensed health care provider in the region that is licensed to treat claimants for workers' compensation. In emergencies an unlicensed or uncertified doctor may be able to treat worker's injuries if they have been notified about the accident and have completed the necessary initial injury report.

In addition to workers' compensation, businesses can also be liable for additional indirect costs related to injuries to employees. For instance, expenses like the period during which an employee is absent from work or the cost of hiring a replacement worker could also be included in these indirect costs.
