WorkCover Claims for Dental

DentalOne is a dental care provider that can offer comprehensive support for patients seeking to make WorkCover claims for dental care due to workplace injuries or accidents. Understanding that navigating the WorkCover claims process can be daunting for many, DentalOne simplifies this process by providing an array of services and support tailored to meet the needs of individuals with work-related dental injuries.

What is WorkCover?

WorkCover is an insurance system designed to help workers who are injured or become ill due to their job. It covers various expenses, including medical treatments, rehabilitation, and compensation for lost wages.

Coverage for Dental Injuries:

Eligibility:

  • Any employee who sustains a dental injury or illness as a direct result of their work is eligible for WorkCover benefits.
  • Injuries can range from accidents causing physical trauma to the teeth and jaw to conditions resulting from repetitive strain or exposure to hazardous materials.

Types of Dental Treatments Covered:

  • Emergency Dental Treatment: Immediate care for acute dental injuries.
  • Restorative Treatments: Procedures such as fillings, crowns, and bridges to repair damaged teeth.
  • Surgical Procedures: Oral surgeries required due to work-related injuries.
  • Prosthodontics: Replacement of missing teeth with dentures or implants if the loss is work-related.
  • Endodontics: Root canal treatments to address internal tooth damage caused by workplace injuries.

How to Make a Claim:

Report the Injury:
Notify your employer about the dental injury as soon as possible. Timely reporting is crucial for claim acceptance.


Seek Medical Attention:
Visit a dentist or medical professional immediately for assessment and treatment. Ensure the dentist provides a detailed report of the injury and its relation to your work.


Submit a WorkCover Claim:
Complete and submit a WorkCover claim form. Your employer or WorkCover insurer can provide this form. Attach all relevant medical reports and documentation.


Follow Up:
Keep in touch with your WorkCover insurer for updates on your claim status. Provide any additional information or documents they may require.

What Patients Should Know:

No Out-of-Pocket Expenses:
If your claim is accepted, WorkCover will cover all approved dental treatment costs related to the work injury.


Choice of Dentist:
You have the right to choose your dentist, but ensure they are approved by WorkCover to avoid complications in the claims process.


Ongoing Care:
WorkCover may cover ongoing dental care and rehabilitation if necessary for recovery.


Legal Rights:
You are entitled to compensation and medical treatment under WorkCover. If your claim is denied or you encounter issues, you can seek legal advice or assistance from worker support organisations.


Documentation:
Keep detailed records of all treatments, appointments, and communications related to your injury and WorkCover claim. This documentation can be crucial if there are any disputes or issues with your claim.


By understanding the WorkCover process and your rights, you can ensure that you receive the necessary dental care and support following a work-related injury. For more detailed information, visit the official WorkCover website or consult with your employer’s WorkCover insurer.
