BENEFITS
Minnesota Work Comp Benefits
If you suffer from injuries related to a work accident in Minnesota your employer’s worker’s compensation insurance company is responsible for providing certain benefits. Minnesota employers are required to have workers comp insurance to cover medical expenses and a percentage of lost wages.
A Minnesota work accident attorney at Fields Law Firm can fight for your rights and the benefits you deserve because you can’t work.
Minnesota Workers Compensation is a state-regulated insurance system that pays medical bills and lost income benefits through temporary or permanent disability payments for Minnesota employees who are injured at work or who have work accident injuries, industrial diseases or occupational illnesses.
Workmans Comp will pay for the medical treatment of injuries or illness if:
- the injury occurred at work or the disease or illness is job-related; and
- the injured worker is an employee and not an independent contractor who was hurt on the job site.
What does Minnesota Worker’s Compensation pay for?
- Medical expenses related to treatment for your work injury
- Income loss benefits for a portion of your lost wages
- Benefits for permanent impairments or loss of function of a body part
- Spouse and dependent benefits if you die of a work related injury
- Vocational rehabilitation services if you cannot return to your previous position
Minnesota Workers Compensation laws can be very complex and overwhelming. Disability benefits, medical benefits, injury settlement and death benefits are determined by many different laws, specific to Minnesota. Understanding the Minnesota insurance system and the Workers Compensation Appeals Process will help lessen the stress and approach the medical and legal process more confidently. Your Minnesota workman’s comp attorney at Fields Law Firm is available to assist you with any workers compensation benefit problems you may have.
