About Work Injuries
No matter how hard we try to be safe, accidents seem to happen when you least expect them. Whether it happened due to a specific injury/event, such as something falling on you, or as a cumulative/repetitive aspect of what you do as part of your daily tasks, such as keying or using a wrench, if it happened at work it is a work injury. As an injured worker you are entitled to be treated as such. This means you are to be treated by a physician of your choice until the injury has healed, or has healed as much as possible, at little or no cost to you. You cannot be fired or reprimanded in any way for claiming a true on the job injury.
The state of Washington was one of the first states in the union to form its own Labor and Industries insurance for injured workers. It was developed to provide care for you, the injured worker, to return you to your pre-injury state, and get you back to your every day life.
At Sammamish Chiropractic the focus is on returning you to your pre-injury state as quickly as possible with the least amount of disruption to your life. We handle all aspects of your care, from consultation, examination, treatment, and even billing the insurance company. We deal personally with you, your employer, and the insurance company to ensure you achieve maximum results!
