How much pay will you get when on workers comp for surgery?

For Maryland it's 70% of pay, tax free. I do believe it depends on state law. I know that in Maryland the first 3 days of injury Workers Compensation will not pay you, you either need to take sick or vacation leave. Do think about getting a lawyer so you can better understand your rights. Lawyers who specialize in Workers Compensation law normally do not require you to pay them, they charge a % based on if they get money for you from Workers Compensation. This should be something that does not come out of your pocket, If they do not get any money for you. Workers Compensation should pay for: Any medical expenses, procedures, or surgeries due to injury/illness received at work. Medications needed due to injuries. If you need in home care via nurse. Lost wages (including over time) minus the first 3 days of injury. Gas expenses by mileage to and from the doctors office and hospitals. Parking fees (this may need to be reimbursed) Tips; It is ALWAYS your right to be treated by the doctor(s) of YOUR choice, Workmens Compensation may require you to seek a 2nd opinion from a dooctor of their choice, however you do not HAVE to receive treatment from that doctor, you may have to see that doctor only for a 2nd opinion to keep receiving your benefits. It is a good idea to get a binder with tabs, and to keep all correspondance in with / from workmens compensation, doctors, diagnosis, tests preformed, work, hospitals, receipts, bills, pay stubs (from either work or pay from workers compensation) Keep detailed lists of doctors appointments dates and time. Keep all doctor appointments, either scheduled by you or Workmens Compensation. Take notes when speaking to your Workmens Compensation Case Manager or Nurse with: Name of person whom you speak with, Name of Doctors office, Date and Time and what the conversation is about. Good luck! Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

What is workers compensation law?

Each state has its own WC laws, and each state is a little different. Basically the laws are that if you are injured in the course and scope of your work, Workers Compensation insurance will pay for your medical treatment costs (Doctor, drugs, transportation costs) If you are unable to work, after a waiting period (typically 7 days) Workers Comp will replace a PART of your wages you usually earned. It is not required that you file a lawsuit against anyone. You must report the injury to your supervisor at once, and file an Employers First Report of Injury. SOME occupational diseases are also covered by Workers Comp.


I got hurt at work and the doctor says it's a hernia, my boss it was my fault and i'm feel they're planing to get rid of me. What can I do ?

If you were hurt on the job, report it to the workers compensation board and they will make the determination if it was preventable or not. Your boss can not deny you filing a claim.


What should you do if your doctor recommends you do not work while an injury heals but workers compensation refuses to cover you?

State establish laws and guidelines for workman's compensation insurance. The next step after a denial is to file an appeal with the state's worker's (or workman's) compensation board of appeal. Unfortunately such disputes usually will require the worker to obtain legal respresentation, as the process can be complicated and stressful, to say the least.
