Post Falls Idaho Workers’ Compensation Claim

Have you suffered a work-related accident and injury in Post Falls? Don’t delay! Our law office speaks with injured workers regularly who delayed reporting their work injury because an employer discouraged reporting the injury, or the injured worker thought they’d get better. Often injured workers who delay pursuing their claim lose their rights under Idaho work comp laws.

Work injuries can happen to anyone - especially in physical employment

If you’ve suffered an Idaho work accident and injury, you should:

-Tell your employer immediately.

-Seek medical care, and be sure to tell the medical provider that your injury is work-related. -Help your employer fill out a first report of injury.

-Contact your employer’s workers’ compensation carrier.

-You can also contact the Idaho Industrial Commission.

Unfortunately, the steps listed above are often insufficient to obtain the workers’ compensation benefits you deserve.

If you’ve suffered an Idaho work comp injury, you may not have received the benefits you’re entitled to. Contact an experienced Idaho work injury lawyer now for a FREE case review by submitting your information below or call Goicoechea Law, LLC, at 208.743.2313.

Lewiston Idaho Work Injury – Independent Medical Examination?

If you’ve been hurt at work in Idaho, the work comp insurance company may schedule you for an “independent medical evaluation” or IME.

There is nothing independent about the medical evaluation. It is more of an insurance medical evaluation. The doctor will be hand-picked by the insurance company.

If your Idaho workers compensation insurance adjuster schedules you for an “insurance medical evaluation,” then your compensation and medical benefits may be terminated.

Insurance company doctors often focus on pre-existing conditions, prior injuries, or say that injuries you feel were caused by your Idaho work unjury are unrelated to the Idaho work accident.

Our attorneys are familiar with most of the doctors in Idaho hired by workers compensation insurance carriers. If you have lost your Idaho workers compensation benefits because of an insurance medical evaluation, or if you have been scheduled for an insurance medical evaluation, contact an experienced Idaho workers compensation attorney to help protect your rights.
