General Info:

1. Do I qualify for Workers' Compensation? In Pennsylvania, almost all employees are covered by workers' compensation from the first day of employment. An Employee injured at work is entitled to medical expenses from the first day of injury. However, there is a seven day waiting period until an Employee can receive lost wage benefits. If an Employee's disability last for more than fourteen (14) days, then the first seven (7) days become payable as well. 2. How long do I have to see the company doctor? If your Employer has posted a list of at least six (6) doctors in your workplace, that meets the specific requirements of the Workers' Compensation Act, you will be required to treat with a doctor on that list for ninety (90) days. An Employer cannot direct you to one specific doctor. If the employer does not have a list or this list does not meet the requirements of the Workers' Compensation Act, then you may treat with a doctor of your own choosing. In addition, you may treat with your own doctor during the initial ninety (90) day period. However, the Employee and not the Insurance Carrier will be responsible for payment. 3. What type of compensation am I eligible for? All injured workers are entitled to have medical expenses paid by the insurance carrier. Workers' injured for more than seven (7) days are also entitled to have their loss wages paid. In addition, facial scarring or the loss of use to a specific part of the body may also be compensate.
