Workers Compensation for Patients
On your initial consultation we will need the following information:
-
Employer name, phone number and address
-
Claim number (if allocated)
-
Date of injury (if applicable)
-
Insurance company name (if allocated)
Please note that there is no legal or operational basis for employers or their representatives to be present during a medical consultation between an injured worker and a treating doctor. This applies even when treatment is recommended or facilitated by the employer.
