Workers compensation is a legal remedy whereby an employee who is injured on the job may be entitled to certain benefits. The benefits can include medical care for the injury, indemnity wage benefits, vocational rehabilitation services, and/or death benefits. These benefits are the obligation of the employer and are paid directly to the employee by the employer or its workers compensation insurer.
Medical benefits available through workers' compensation include hospital and medical expenses that are necessary to identify and treat your injury or illness. Although the details of what is covered vary in each state, workers' compensation generally covers such things as doctor visits, medication, and surgeries. If you need equipment (such as a wheelchair or special vehicle) to help you deal with your injury, workers' compensation will likely cover that cost as well.
