About Workers' Compensation
Workers' Compensation insurance covers medical expenses for job-related injuries and illnesses, including orthopaedic conditions. Every state requires employers to carry workers' comp coverage. Orthopaedic injuries — fractures, sprains, back injuries, and repetitive stress conditions — are among the most common workers' comp claims.
Orthopaedic Coverage
Workers' compensation covers all medically necessary orthopaedic treatment for work-related injuries, including office visits, imaging, physical therapy, surgery, and rehabilitation. There are no deductibles or copayments for the injured worker. Some states allow employees to choose their own orthopaedic surgeon, while others require treatment from an employer-designated provider. Pre-authorization may be required for elective procedures.
