Helpful Points Regarding Workers Comp Claims
The first priority is to attend to the injured worker. If the injury or illness is an emergency, seek qualified medical attention at the nearest facility. Once the emergency has passed, care will generally revert to a medical provider chosen by the employer. If the injury is minor and requires only first aid, the responder should be appropriately trained and use the proper personal protective equipment.
As soon as you, the employer, are notified of an injury or illness, immediately report the claim to your workers compensation insurance company.
