One of the most important things people want to know after a workplace accident or job-related injury occurs is this: What medical and income benefits can I expect to see? This question is a natural one and has nothing to do with greed. It is simply about the economic realities created by the inability to earn a paycheck and the high costs of medical care.
At Percy Law Group, PC, we protect the rights of the injured employee in Massachusetts. Our knowledge of the law, our familiarity with the people who make the system work, and our dedication have produced successful results for our clients.
If you have been injured and qualify for benefits, you may expect to receive:
Medical benefits are available if you suffer a work-related illness or injury that requires medical treatment. You are entitled to adequate and reasonable medical care as well as prescription reimbursement and mileage reimbursement for travel related to all of your medical treatment. It is important to note that you are entitled to this variety of workers' compensation benefits for as long as medical services are still required due to your injury or illness. Loss of function / disfigurement benefits can be collected if your injury has resulted in the permanent loss of a specific bodily function. You may also be entitled to this benefit if your injury or illness results in a scar on your face, neck, or hands. A loss of function or disfigurement payment is a one-time payment and is dependent upon the severity of the loss of function and/or scar incurred.
