Being injured while on the job can be devastating to both the injured worker and his or her family. In some instances, what originally appeared to be a minor injury may actually prove to be much more serious and life-threatening than the injured worker may have realized. Should that be the case, it may be in the worker’s best interests to have his or her workers’ compensation case re-opened. First and foremost, workers’ compensation benefits will be able to provide an injured worker with the financial means necessary to get all accident-related medical expenses paid.
These types of benefits can also compensate a worker for lost wages caused by time away from work. In cases where an employee’s work-related injuries have resulted in a partial or total permanent disability, that employee may be eligible to receive disability benefits for the duration of his or her life. If you have experienced a new condition, an additional condition or you have been made aware of a previously undiscovered condition, you may be entitled to have your workers’ compensation case reopened.
