The workers’ compensation claims process is complicated

It should be simple. You’ve been hurt in a workplace accident in Westchester County and need medical treatment. Your claim is processed and you get the benefits you are qualified to receive. But there’s a lot more to it. In order to get benefits, you need to:

Notify your employer about the injury or illness as soon as possible. Provide details about how and when the injury occurred and any witnesses present.
Obtain medical care for your injuries and follow the prescribed treatment plan.
Complete and submit Form C-3 to the New York Workers’ Compensation Board within two years from the date of the injury.
Collect and organize documents related to your injury, such as medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and any other supporting evidence.
Go to any independent medical examinations (IMEs) scheduled by the insurance carrier to evaluate your condition.

If your claim is disputed or denied, you may need to attend hearings before an administrative law judge and present additional evidence that supports your claim for benefits.
