Q: Are there limits in California on certain types of treatment for my work injury?
A:
There are limits on certain type of workers compensation medical treatment in California. You are allowed 24 chiropractor visits, 24 physical therapy visits, and 24 occupational therapy visits if your injury date is 2004 or later. Your claims administrator can authorize additional visits if necessary.
As you can see, if you are seriously injured in a work injury, California has some of lowest workers compensation benefits in the U.S. Simply put, California workers compensation is extremely unfair to seriously injured workers and their families. Because of this, you should have your case reviewed to see if you have a third party work injury case.
A third-party work injury case is civil lawsuit where someone other than your employer is legally responsible for your injuries.

We are committed to fighting to get you the justice you deserve, and maybe help you regain your peace of mind in the process.
