We are not the “company doctor.” We will always do what is in the best interest of the patients first. While federal workers compensation Doctors will never do anything unethical or illegal, we will never be pressured to do something that is not in the patient’s best interest.

How to qualify for a Federal Workers Compensation Claim

The Workers Compensation Insurance was created under the Federal Employees Compensation Act (FECA) to defend the rights of employees and employers. You have the right to receive compensation for your work-related injuries. Your employer also has the right to protection from unreasonable personal injury lawsuits.
If you are suffering from work-related injuries or illness, you have the right to receive lost wages for a specific period and to have your medical bills covered. If your claim is denied, you have the right to hire an attorney to appeal your case in court. Let us know if you need help finding a lawyer. We can suggest a good one for you.
If you were injured while doing your job, you qualify for Workers Compensation.
