The Law Office of Thomas L. Brayton, III, with locations in Waterbury and Bethlehem, Connecticut wants you to know that work related injuries are often time covered by your employer’s worker’s compensation insurance policy. So long as you were injured in the course of your employment you should be entitled to wage replacement benefits for the time you miss from work. The worker’s compensation insurance company is usually also responsible to pay for the doctor (whether it be an orthopedic, neurology or pain management specialist), hospital, physical therapist and diagnostic studies you incur due to the work related injuries. Be sure to check if your work related injuries are subject to a manage care plan that the employer and/or its insurance company has that you must use to get your medical treatment. You have to go to the employer’s designated doctor, which is usually someone at a clinic, for your first visit but then you can select your authorized treating doctor for these work related injuries. You are in control of who you see once you comply with the employer’s requirement to see the designated doctor first. Please contact the workers compensation lawyer at the Law Office of Thomas L. Brayton, III so I can help you with your work related injuries.
