Medical Treatment for a Work Injury
An employee injured in a workplace accident is entitled to fully paid medical benefits by the employer's insurance carrier. It is their duty to provide and furnish medically necessary treatment for workplace injuries.
The Tampa workers' compensation medical benefits lawyers at Petruccelli Mason, LLP have more than 18 combined years of experience guiding clients through the challenges and difficulties inherent in a workers' comp claim. We understand the frustration, confusion and anger many clients feel at not receiving the care and attention they need to get healthy following a workplace accident. It is our goal to explain the situation, the legal process and the problems to overcome along the way.
Many times, a dispute will arise as to certain medical services being authorized. An employee claimant is entitled to medical care, including surgical procedures, diagnostic testing, medications and assistive devices. Learning about the medical rights and responsibilities in these situations is important. Our lawyers, including Christopher Petruccelli, who is board certified in workers' compensation, can assist you in selecting the right physician to ensure you are getting the proper medical care.
