If you have been injured while at work,
you may be entitled to receive various forms of compensation
including payment of your medical expenses, lost wages, your
permanent injury or loss to the body part injured, vocational
services to help you find a new job, reimbursement for mileage, cost
of injury adjustments, etc.
However, to be eligible to receive worker’s
compensation benefits, you must be an employee of the company, and
you must be injured while you are at work. You are entitled to
treat with a doctor of your choosing. You are not required to see
doctors chosen by your employer or their insurance company. This is
important. Your doctor must provide a medical expert report that
indicates that in his or her expert opinion your injuries are a
result of a work related accident.
