Under Colorado workers' compensation law, an injured worker is entitled to receive all medical treatment in connection to their injury free of charge. This includes all doctor visits, tests, operations and even transportation to and from treatment.
Unfortunately, many workers' comp insurers find ways to not pay these benefits – they may say the injured worker's condition was brought on by some other non-work related event. Or, they may say the particular injury isn't covered.
There's no if, ands or butts here – you are entitled to these benefits under Colorado law. Don't let your employer or their workers' comp insurer tell you they're not responsible for paying your medical bills for an injury sustained in the course of your employment.
And unlike other workers' comp benefits in Colorado , there is no time or monetary limit to medical benefits.
