Billing & ClaimsQuestion 45 of 100

Workers' compensation insurance covers:

a.Job-related injuries and illnesses arising out of employment
b.Routine preventive care unrelated to work
c.Cosmetic procedures
d.A patient's dependents' medical care

Explanation

Workers' compensation is a state-regulated program that pays for medical care and lost wages when an employee is injured or becomes ill because of their job. Claims are billed to the workers' compensation carrier, not the patient's health plan. These claims often require an injury date, employer information, and a claim number.
