SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION

Anyone who is hurt on the job should seek immediate medical attention to avoid further injuries. If the injury is life or limb threatening, or of any other serious nature, they should go straight to an emergency room or call 9-1-1. If the injury is of a less serious nature, employees should consult their boss on their worker’s compensation policies prior to selecting a provider. Any person that is hurt on the job has the right to seek medical help.

WORKERS COMP INSURANCE

Worker’s compensation insurance companies will usually cover the full cost of your medical expenses after an injury on the job to include recovery care such as chiropractic treatment for a length of time determined by the doctor. The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) underwrites insurance coverage for work-related injuries for public and private sector employers and oversees the workers' compensation programs for self-insured employers. Therefore, Ohio employers and employees can rest assured their worker’s compensation claims will be fairly covered.

SEEK CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Chiropractic care following a work-related injury can help relieve any lingering pain. Neck, back and spine injuries are common in the workplace which mostly stem from slips, falls and other accidents. First Choice Chiropractic, the best Columbus, OH workers compensation chiropractor, will have those that are hurt back on the job and free of pain as quick as possible. Going back to work after an injury while still in pain is not fair to the worker who has been injured on the job. Workers hurt on the job are entitled to the relief they deserve — First Choice Chiropractic works hard to reduce the recovery time you spend away from work.

CONSULT AN ATTORNEY

Injured workers should also consult a worker’s compensation attorney. Attorneys can be helpful in completing worker’s compensation claims to include insurance coverage of chiropractic visits. Personal injury attorneys can also relieve much of the stress and confusion often tied to a worker’s claim of injury on the job or in the workplace. Finally, a licensed attorney will know exactly what forms and documents are required when dealing with workers compensation insurance companies and lawsuits.

Auto Injury

Upon our initial consultation with Dr. James Fonner we found out there were some underlying issues to our pain. They set up a treatment plan and some more x-rays for my wife and also put us in contact with a lawyer. From start to finish they handled our case in a professional but friendly way and documented all of our injuries and treatment.
