Why Are Workers’ Comp Claims Denied?
Workers’ compensation denials are relatively common. Many initial claims are denied but are later approved once errors are corrected or additional evidence is provided. Because we have extensive experience with workers’ compensation claims and appeals in Schuylkill County, Northumberland County, and throughout Pennsylvania, our attorneys can accurately determine the reason for a denial and devise a strategy to seek a positive result.
Workers’ comp claims may be denied because:
- A worker waited too long to report the injury to his/her employer
- The employer alleges that the injury is not work-related
- The employer or workers’ comp insurance company alleges the injury stemmed from a pre-existing condition or previous injury
- The workers’ comp insurance company alleges fraud on the part of the injured worker
