“With regards to Workers’ Compensation claims, where do I send my employee with a dental injury?”
In our local area, there are not very many dentists available that accept workers’ compensation claims. The insurance carriers advise that you send the injured employee to your regular occupational medical clinic for their first visit. The medical clinic will then refer the injured employee to a workers’ compensation dentist in the area. If you send your injured employee to his regular dentist for treatment first, there may be the possibility that the workers’ compensation carrier may not pay for those services.
