Workers Comp Prescription Costs in Savannah

Depending on the type of injury you sustained in the workplace, your doctor may prescribe medications as part of your treatment. As long as you are being treated by an authorized treating physician who is either listed on the employers’ posted panel of physicians, or one approved by the State Board of Workers’ Compensation, prescription costs should be covered as part of your medical benefits.

The Price of Your Health

It has been widely reported that the cost of prescription medication in workers’ compensation cases has risen sharply over the past few years. In fact, the prices increased nearly 8% between 2013 and 2014. As a result, insurance companies are working to minimize the amount of prescription costs that have to be paid out for workers’ compensation claims each year.

It is important to remember that the insurance company is more interested in decreasing their financial burden than in your health. That is why it is important to work with an experienced workers’ compensation attorney at every step of your case to ensure that you are receiving all of the benefits you are entitled to.
