Will my medical expenses be paid promptly?
The insurance company is required to pay your medical bills if your claim is accepted. Your doctors will work on a payment schedule within the guidelines of the workers’ compensation laws.
If your claim has not been accepted, the insurance company is not required to pay your medical bills. If your claim is denied, but you are contesting the denial, your doctors are not allowed to bill you or send your account to collections until your case is over.
