If Medical Care Costs Are Hard For You Before Your Social Security Or Workers’ Comp Claim Goes Through
What if you can’t afford a doctor and you wish to apply for Social Security Disability benefits or make a workers’ compensation claim? There is no “one-size-fits-all” answer to this question, but a consultation with an experienced SSD and/or workers’ comp attorney is a very good place to start.
In the case of Social Security Disability benefit applications and lack of access to health care, keep in mind that there are many social service agencies throughout New York City that make referrals for people without health insurance. Discuss the details of your case with an attorney with ample experience working with people of all income levels who are no longer able to work because of a disability. The Klein Law Group, P.C., has represented people of many walks of life.
In the case of a workers’ compensation claim, lack of access to health care should not be an impediment to making a claim for benefits. If you have been injured on the job, you have the right to report that injury to your employer and work directly with a physician referred by the workers’ comp insurer. Your medical bills should be covered by your employer’s workers’ compensation carrier.
