Workers’ compensation FAQs
Employees injured on the job may be eligible for dental treatment if the injury involves the mouth, teeth, or jaw and is verified as work-related.
Once a claim is accepted, your case administrator or medical provider network (MPN) authorizes treatment, which is covered by workers’ compensation.
In most cases, your employer’s insurance determines your provider, but Western Dental is in many networks and can often accept your case.
