Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. Explain the Workers' Compensation Process in Pennsylvania
When a workplace injury or illness occurs, employees have the right to file a workers' compensation claim to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other associated costs. The Western Pennsylvania workers' compensation lawyers at Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. emphasize the importance of timely action in reporting an injury. State law mandates that employees notify their employer within 120 days of the incident or diagnosis. Employers are then responsible for reporting the injury to the Pennsylvania Bureau of Workers' Compensation, initiating the claims process.
The role of Western Pennsylvania workers' compensation lawyers becomes especially vital in cases where claims are denied or delayed. Legal representation can help injured workers understand the nuances of the process, including eligibility for benefits such as total or partial disability compensation. These benefits are designed to provide financial support during recovery, ensuring injured employees can maintain stability while addressing their health needs.
Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. highlights the importance of understanding Pennsylvania's requirements regarding medical care. Employers may post a panel of approved healthcare providers that injured workers must use for treatment during the first 90 days of care. If the employer fails to properly establish this panel, employees can choose their own healthcare providers for treatment. The firm's Western Pennsylvania workers' compensation lawyers are well-versed in these regulations and can assist employees in navigating these requirements.
A quote from the blog post, "What Is the Workers' Compensation Process in Pennsylvania?" underscores the significance of these legal protections: "Understanding the steps involved in filing a workers' compensation claim can help injured employees take the right actions at the right time to protect their rights." This clarity is especially important when distinguishing between total and partial disability benefits.
Total disability benefits apply when an employee is completely unable to work, providing approximately two-thirds of their average weekly wage, subject to a state maximum. These benefits may transition to partial disability benefits if an impairment rating evaluation deems the worker's impairment below 35%. Partial disability benefits, in turn, support workers who can resume employment but at reduced earning capacity, covering two-thirds of the wage difference for up to 500 weeks.
The experienced team at Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. recognizes that each workers' compensation case is unique and requires a personalized approach. Whether addressing denied claims or exploring the potential for reinstating benefits, their lawyers offer compassionate guidance and legal support. Acting promptly and seeking knowledgeable assistance can significantly improve the likelihood of a favorable outcome for injured workers.
The firm encourages individuals who have suffered workplace injuries to seek legal advice promptly. Navigating the workers' compensation process can be challenging, but with the right support, employees can secure the benefits they deserve to recover and move forward.
Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. invites injured workers in Pennsylvania to schedule a free consultation to discuss their case and explore available options. Their team of Western Pennsylvania workers' compensation lawyers is committed to protecting the rights of injured workers and providing the guidance needed to achieve financial recovery and peace of mind.
