Obtaining Medical Benefits in Georgia

Chiropractic care, surgery, and other medical care is often necessary after a serious work injury. These medical expenses can be quite burdensome if you do not obtain rightful medical benefits under workers' compensation law. As experienced workers' compensation lawyers, we strive to ensure you receive the proper medical attention and necessary benefits to cover these medical expenses.

What Medical Expenses are covered?

If you have been hurt at work, you are entitled to may forms of medical benefits, including for the following medical expenses:

  • Emergency room care
  • Doctor visits
  • Prescriptions
  • Chiropractic care
  • Physical therapy
  • Medical equipment
  • Surgery
  • Ambulance needs
  • Transportation costs to and from appointments (41 cents per mile)
  • Other medical expenses

Additionally, psychiatric medical expenses may be covered. However, these psychological injuries, such as depression, are only covered when the individual has suffered a physical injury also.

Can I Choose my Doctor?

Your employer will provide a list of doctors for you to choose from and may change to a different doctor on the list one time without any questions or problems. However, the most important thing after a work injury is to ensure you receive proper medical care so that you can recover. If you believe you are not receiving the care or opinions you deserve, let us help determine your best course of action. As experienced workers' compensation lawyers, we help clients facing these challenges.

At Hamilton & Hasner, we believe clients should be taken seriously by their doctor, employer, and attorney. If you need assistance obtaining workers' compensation coverage for your medical expenses, we can help.
