At Waple & Houk, PLLC, our Monroe workers’ compensation attorneys have years of experience helping individuals just like you get the compensation they deserve.
Workers’ compensation claims are denied for various reasons, which can be frustrating for employees seeking rightful benefits. Some common reasons for denial include incomplete documentation, disagreements over the injury’s cause, missed filing deadlines, and sometimes even technicalities in the paperwork.
In addition to these factors, claims can also be rejected due to pre-existing conditions not being differentiated from the current injury, insufficient medical evidence supporting the claim, discrepancies between the reported incident and medical records, lack of witnesses to corroborate the injury, and failure to adhere to prescribed treatment plans. Moreover, issues related to reporting the injury promptly, such as delays in notifying the employer or seeking medical attention, can also lead to claim denials.
Understanding the specific cause of denial is crucial as it allows individuals to navigate the appeals process more effectively and seek the benefits they deserve.
