Some Reasons Your Workers Compensation Got Denied

After suffering an injury at work, you may be
entitled to receive certain benefits. These
benefits will help you with your medical bills,
and help you move on. If you lost wages due to
the inability to work, you may recover them. All
you have to do is report the injury to your
superiors as quickly as you can, and ask your
employer for help in filing a workers
compensation claim. At the same time, consult
with your attorneys about everything. However,
there are a few reasons that may impact your
claim here are a few main reasons why your claim
may get denied.

Injury Happened Outside of Workplace
To be eligible to receive workers compensation
benefits, you have to be able to prove that your
injury happened at the workplace. Without proper
evidence, it will be hard convincing the
insurance company to provide you with any
benefits. As far as they are concerned, you are
just another one trying to obtain workers comp
benefits.

You Failed to Notify Your Superiors
Every state has a time limit within which you
have to let your superiors know of the accident.
In California, you have 30 days to do so failure
to provide your superiors with that information
will result in your claim getting denied by the
Board.

You Were Drunk
  • If you were intoxicated at the time of the
    accident, your claim may get immediately denied.
    Keep in mind that you are NOT entitled to any
    workers compensation benefits if you got injured
    while being intoxicated. If either alcohol or
    drugs are found in your system, your claim will
    be disregarded.

You Visited Your Own Doctor
  • To be eligible to seek compensation for a
    work-related injury, you have to visit the
    appointed doctor. If you do not know which ones
    you can visit, speak with your employer right
    after getting injured. It is important to go to
    the appointed doctor, as only then will your
    medical bills be fully covered by the work comp
    benefits. Visiting any other doctor will result
    in you having to pay for your medical bills on
    your own.

    Offices of Kropach Kropach and ask to speak
    with Los Angeles workers compensation attorneys,
    schedule a free consultation and you will learn
    everything about your eligibility to obtain work
    comp benefits, and a lot more.
