Title: Four Types of Workers’ Compensation Benefits


1
  • Four Types of Workers Compensation Benefits

2
Medical Bills
  • Workers comp pays for 100 percent of all
    sensible and fundamental medical treatment. Be
    that as it may, there are regularly
    contradictions over what comprises " sensible and
    fundamental treatment, particularly when doctors
    and patients disagree on the extent of the injury
    or course of treatment. Insurers can threaten to
    cut off payments for questionable treatments.

3
Rehabilitation And Retraining
  • If you are unable to return to your previous job
    because your injury prevents you from performing
    job tasks, you may be qualified for
    rehabilitation services to overcome your
    limitations. If those limitations are permanent,
    you may qualify for benefits that pay the costs
    of retraining to develop abilities for comparable
    employment.

4
Compensation
  • While you can't work, you can receive disability
    benefits that replace a portion of your lost
    income, usually two-thirds of your average weekly
    wages. If you cannot resume your previous
    position but are cleared for light duty at a
    lower wage, workers comp will pay to replace a
    portion of those losses, usually about two-thirds
    of the difference in pay between the two
    positions. In the event that you continue a
    lasting loss of capacity or lose a body part, you
    can get extra pay.

5
Death Benefits
  • When a worker suffers a job-related death, a
    surviving spouse and dependent children receive
    death benefits under workers comp, which also
    contributes to funeral and burial costs.

    compensation insurance from the IDA.
