Reasons Why Your Workers’ Compensation Claim Might be Denied
By Pyle Law, July 20 2020 1:21 pmIf you’ve been injured on the job, you might be relying on workers’ compensation to help you make it through this difficult time. Medical expenses and lost wages can add up quickly and waiting for workers’ compensation to come through is stressful enough, but if your workers’ compensation claim is denied, it makes matters that much more difficult. To help ensure that you receive the workers’ compensation to which you are entitled, work closely with an experienced Kansas workers’ compensation attorney.
Workers’ compensation insurance is in place for a reason – to provide injured employees with the financial help they need while limiting employers’ liability. It’s important to remember, however, that the workers’ compensation provider is an insurance company that is motivated by large profits and may go to considerable lengths to diminish settlement offers and even to deny claims outright. The most common reasons for denial include:
All of these reasons – and more – can negatively affect your claim. You’re obviously not an expert on workers’ compensation claims, and you shouldn’t have to be. An experienced workers’ compensation attorney will help ensure that your case is as solid as possible moving forward.
