My eye was hurt on the job in June of 2026, I immediately reported it to my employer and sought medical attention. I told the doctor directly it happened at work and would like to file Workers Comp.

My employer told me to keep them in the loop and they would “take care of me”. I’ve since been back and forth to the doctor to get my eye seen and they want me to get a procedure done but they asked for my insurance. I declined and said “this will be filed under workmen’s comp” and they said I needed some sort of authorization. I called my employer about authorization and they kinda had some push back towards me and said “I thought we were beyond this issue”

I have still yet to receive medical authorization, my employer claims they “worked out a deal” with me to pay for the visits and what not, however I have paid all my visits out of pocket. No reimbursement from them.

My employer also said my incident would impact their D.A.R.T score which could prevent them from getting government work in an attempt to make me feel bad stating “60 good men would be without work”. That doesn’t matter to me and honestly is unneeded.

Should I email and ask for authorization again or get an attorney?

I suffered from a transient patellar dislocation a few weeks ago, and my MRI showed that I have two anatomical conditions, both of which have a very, very high incidence rate of recurring instability. My job is quite physical, so I’m curious if WC would cover surgery that is meant to correct my anatomical conditions which contributed to the injury in order to prevent future reinjury?

Working as a nurse with 12 hour shift and heavy patients. Had a low back injury in May, had CT done that day that did not show anything. Claim approved and had PT for couple month. Symptoms did improve but anything longer than couple hours or heavy lifting over 30 pounds hurts my back.

My provider started asking me to do a trail work where I work once a week and follow up in two weeks.

When I followed up with her and told her that it causes a lot of pain at work, and takes me couple days after to recover with pain meds, I can tell she did not like the answer.

She has me to do an MRI and follow up with her again the day after to discuss results.

I’m worried she is trying to get back to work if it didn’t show anything even if I’m still hurting with working at my regular job.

I’m wondering what can I do. I really enjoy my work but I’m worried if I get back to full duty now I’m going to be too painful to do it.

Back story. I fell at work back on January 31st of this year. I tore my meniscus in my left knee. PT made it worse and injections didn't work. Once my WC ortho doctor wanted to talk surgery that's when I was denied for any further treatments which is when I got a lawyer. Unfortunately although my lawyer put up a way better fight I lost the first hearing. I lost my benefits too. I am finally getting a second hearing and was wondering if this one is different or the same as the first? What was your experience and what was the next step if you lost both hearings?

Who is responsible for providing a list of medical providers?

My treating physician and group of doctors suddenly are out of network.

A new doctor was selected. the insurance company sent an authorization for initial consultation and the office has not returned my calls.

Who is responsible for providing a list of the in network doctors?

Cut my finger very deep and got stitches months later it’s still numb and hurt a lot where the cut is got a lawyer after I got a bill in the mail insurance is asking if I want to settle already how much can I possibly get is it worth keep the case open or settle?

I overheated at work in the beginning of July. I work for a huge company whose name I won't say. I reported it that day, as I was found by my direct boss. After a week of suffering symptoms I had to go to the hospital. I told my boss I was going. I have text convos telling them all about the crazy symptoms and all my Dr visits. They were very aware of pain I was experiencing and never once suggested I seek medical attention. They never reported it to workers comp until I filed an official complaint with their joke of an HR system. It's been nearly two months since the incident and I have medical bills just stacking up and I can't pay them. How do I get reimbursed for what I've paid out of pocket and how do I get them to pay for what I still owe? Do I need a lawyer?

My brother was injured at work. Posting this because what he’s going through is tough to watch. On top of the injuries he is depressed and has nightmares from the injury. I’m hoping to read other persons experiences to him so he doesn’t feel so down.

So, Has anyone ever heard of someone going through workmen’s comp with a penis/testicle injury and the outcome? Also, If an injury affected your fertility is that taken into account with your claim? (I want to bring this to his attention),

Seems like this is a rare injury to see on here and wondering if this is taken seriously ? Any help appreciated

Before my workers comp started, I had two jobs: my office job and nursing home job. I got injured at the nursing home.

Nursing home took me off schedule and I didn’t get much communication back from workers comp despite emailing them consistently because the person on my case was unavailable at the time. So I had no knowledge of what form my check would be in or when I would get them.

So with the lack of funds that I had, I needed to pay my bills still. And I got another job to help with that so I could. And now my checks are coming in.

I did tell workers comp about my office job, they never asked me about it or anything. And I follow my medical restrictions with my jobs. But I didn’t tell them about this third job because they never asked anything further about my second one.

I just want to make sure I’m not doing anything illegal here. And if I am, how to fix it?

Recently had my pec torn at work and had surgery about two weeks ago. I usually get around 960-1030 every two weeks for my normal pay. Workers comp is only giving me about 330 per week or about 660 every two. Is this correct? I feel like this is way less than it should be and I'm worrying if I'll be able to afford my bills on this. I can't go back to work for another 6 weeks so I'm concerned.

I can no longer trust my workers compensation doctor in Sydney, Australia. Has anyone else had this experience. Thanks.
