My workers compensation insurance carrier is paying a claim and I do not agree that the injury happened at work. How can I dispute the claim?
You should try to work with your carrier and provide any information or documentation you have to support your position. If the carrier continues to accept liability for the claim, you can file an Employer’s Contest of Compensability (DWC Form-004) and a Request for a Benefit Review Conference (DWC Form-045) with TDI-DWC. You will be required to attend a Benefit Review Conference to present your evidence at your local TDI-DWC office. For more information, please contact Customer Assistance at 1-800-252-7031.
