The Process for Receiving Workers’ Compensation Benefits
You are entitled to receive medical care for on the job injuries. Your employer and medical insurance company are obligated to send you to a doctor of their choosing. If the doctor determines that you cannot go back to work, you are entitled income benefits. If you are able to return to work, but at a lower wage or working fewer hours, you should be eligible for supplemental income benefits to bridge the gap. Once you have completed treatment, a doctor will determine your level of permanent impairment. At that point we will help you obtain a lump sum settlement.
