Total knee replacements and Atlanta, GA workers' compensation claims.

Frequently, workers' compensation claimants who sustain knee injuries require total knee replacement surgery. Of course, the workers' compensation carriers are often hesitant to authorize these procedures and question the casual relationship between the work injury and need for surgery. Ultimately, if the work injury aggravated a pre-existing injury and accelerated the need for surgery, the workers' comp carrier should be required to pay for the procedure. If your doctor has recommended a total knee replacement or any other procedure that the work comp carrier has failed to authorize, you should contact experienced Atlanta workers' comp attorney Brian H.
