Accepted vs. Denied NC Workers’ Compensation Claims
If your workers’ compensation case is accepted for medical treatment and wage loss, you are entitled to weekly NC workers’ compensation benefits. But even in accepted claims issues can arise with getting the insurance company to pay for all the medical treatment you need to recover.
In denied NC workers’ compensation claims, the insurance company is denying that you have a compensable claim and contacting a Workers Compensation lawyer may be your only option to recover for medical expenses and lost wages.
