Using Workers’ Compensation
Georgia workers are covered by workers’ compensation starting on the first day on their job. You should report any on-the-job injury to your employer within 30 days to receive benefits, and should seek care from an authorized workers’ compensation provider, like Foot & Ankle Center. You can learn more about submitting a workers’ compensation claim on the Georgia State Board of Workers’ Compensation website. Here are some of the conditions that we treat under workers’ compensation:
- Fractures below the knee
- Ankle sprains
- Ankle strains
- Crush injuries to the foot
