Filing for workers’ compensation benefits is not always an easy task. Any minor error made on your claim, a failure to properly inform your employer or a delay in seeking medical attention after your injury could result in a denial of benefits. Another aspect of workers’ compensation claims you should be aware of is that many workers’ compensation insurance carriers require that an independent medical exam be performed both prior to an employee being approved for benefits and periodically during the course of the benefit period. These allegedly “independent” medical exams are not as unbiased as you would like to believe.
In most cases, the doctors who perform these types of medical exams are doing so at the direction of the workers’ compensation insurance carrier. As a result, you could find yourself in a position where your benefits are being dramatically undervalued, your benefits have been terminated or your claim has been outright denied. Having a Phoenix workers’ compensation lawyer from our firm helping you to navigate through each stage of the workers’ compensation process could make all the difference in the successful outcome of your claim.
