How to Deal with Insurance Companies for Workers’ Compensation Claims
Following a workplace injury, injured workers will likely have to deal with an employer’s insurance company to file their claim
and attempt to get compensation for their medical bills and lost wages. In such cases, it’s important for injured workers to know that:
- Insurance companies are out to protect the employer, not the injured worker, in these cases.
- Insurance agents may likely be looking for ways to undercut or deny their claims because these agents will usually be looking out for the company’s profits – not the injured worker.
- What injured workers say to insurance agents can be used against them.
- If a dispute between the insurance company and the injured worker arises regarding the workers’ compensation claim, the burden of proof will lie with the injured worker. In other words, the injured worker will have to prove his entitlement to benefits and will have to make the effort to push the claim forward.
Types of Insurance Disputes Associated with Workers’ Compensation Claims
Some of the most common types of insurance disputes that arise when workers’ compensation claims are filed involve disputes over:
- The nature and severity of the injury sustained
- The type of medical care that an injured worker needs
- Whether the injured worker has sustained permanent disabilities
- When the injured worker can return to his job.
