The Purpose of Workers’ Compensation

Workers’ compensation claim discussions must be centered on an understanding of the purpose of this essential form of insurance.  The purpose of workers’ compensation is to provide injured or ill workers with benefits.  Work-related injury or illness should spur a successful workers’ compensation claim that provides payment to cover all related expenses regardless of fault:

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages stemming from the injury or illness
• Permanent loss of function

Unfortunately, workers’ compensation insurance providers will deny coverage for legitimate cases in an attempt to advance their bottom line.  If you do not have a talented workers’ compensation attorney in your corner, you might be denied the compensation you deserve.

The insurance provider begins claim analysis with an in-depth review to highlight opportunities that allow for the legal denial or limit of benefits.  Insurers really will question the employee’s eligibility for filing the claim.  Insurance companies will also question the extent of the injury or illness.  In some cases, insurers will critique the extent of medical treatment necessary for the injury or illness.  In other cases, the insurer will insist the injured or ill employee is capable of returning to work sooner than possible.  Even the permanency of the injury is commonly questioned.
