Are past medical bills included in workers' comp settlement?

In Georgia workers' compensation claims, insurance companies pay for medical treatment with authorized providers. If you have settled an accepted workers' compensation claim, chances are that the workers' comp carrier has already paid any past bills for authorized providers. Therefore, those bills will likely not be your responsibility in the future. However, you should check with all providers to make sure bills have been paid prior to settling your claim. If your have a denied workers' comp claim, the work comp carrier has likely not paid for past bills. If you would like to discuss payment of medical bills with an attorney, contact Atlanta workers' comp lawyer Brian Sumrall at (404) 857-3835 or visit
