    Workers Compensation - How to File a Workers Compensation Claim

    The New York State Workers' Compensation Board establishes medical treatment guidelines (MTGs) to aid in the pursuit of objective healing and return-to-work goals. These guidelines are frequently updated in accordance with medical advances and physician recommendations.

    These guidelines are meant to ensure that injured workers receive the same treatment as other workers with similar work-related injuries or diseases. They also help ensure that the treatment is appropriate for the particular injury or illness and that there are no unnecessary or unnecessary medical costs.

    If a doctor decides that medical treatment is not required under the MTGs or other regulations, he/she can ask for an exception from the insurer, asking for a specific exception to these MTGs. This procedure is very complex and could take months to complete.

In the event of a dispute between the employer and the employee, it could be possible to not be able to provide the treatment.
