WHAT ARE WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BENEFITS?

Workers’ compensation provides coverage for all medical care and expenses related to a workplace accident or illness. This includes:

• All hospital costs, doctor visits and physical therapy
• Prescription medicines
• Reimbursement for travel expenses to medical appointments

In addition, you may be eligible for disability benefits, including temporary total disability which typically provides wage replacement benefits of two-thirds of your average weekly salary, up to a maximum amount. Other disability benefits include permanent partial disability, permanent total disability, disfigurement and death benefits for surviving family members. You may also receive vocational rehabilitation benefits if you cannot return to your previous job. We will determine which benefits you are entitled to and fight to obtain them for you.
