What if the injured employees claim is denied by workers compensation?
If the injured employee’s claim is denied, the employee should be notified of the reasons for the denial by receipt of a Form WC-1, and/or WC3, Notice to Controvert, which is filed with the Board by the claims administrator. The employee has the right to request a hearing before the State Board of Workers’ Compensation if he or she disagrees with the denial of the claim.
