Many people who work hard and almost never miss a day of work can find themselves suddenly injured on the job. When you suffer a work-related injury or illness, you can seek benefits through your employer’s workers compensation insurance to cover your medical expenses and more. Medical coverage should include emergency treatment, doctor’s visits, and any medication prescribed to you that can help relieve your pain and heal your injury. Unfortunately, the workers compensation process can be complex with miscommunications between you, your employer, the insurance companies, and your doctors, which can result in substantial delays or complications regarding benefits.
At Kress Specialty Apothecary, we recognize that injured workers need their medication and that they should be focusing on healing and not on dealing with the headaches that can result from navigating the workers’ compensation system. We work closely with workers, their attorneys, and their physicians to ensure the care workers need is not interrupted simply because of complications with the system.
Help for Injured Workers
The pharmacists at Kress Specialty Apothecary understand how significantly a work-related injury or illness can affect your life. Not only can work injuries cause significant pain but they can also limit your ability to work or participate in daily activities, which can often take a toll on you emotionally. We provide individualized attention to each injured worker to help them stay on the right track to recovery so that you can return to work and be pain and impairment-free as soon as possible. Your attention should be on your recovery and not on how to obtain or cover the costs of your much-needed medications.
Dealing with workers’ compensation insurance companies can involve a large amount of paperwork and negotiation. Kress Specialty Apothecary knows how to handle the insurance company in regard to your medication so that you do not have to worry. We can communicate directly with the workers’ comp insurer so that your costs are covered and any time-consuming paperwork is completed. We make it easy to manage your prescriptions by providing free delivery and refills for valid prescriptions without a hassle and with clear instructions on how to use your medication, dosage, side effects, and potential allergies. You can rely on our pharmacy team to handle the hard part so that you can receive your medication with ease and have the relief and assistance you need to get back on your feet.
Working with Physicians
Too often, workmen’s compensation insurance companies believe that they should dictate what is best or appropriate when it comes to the medical care and treatment of injured workers. At Kress Specialty Apothecary, we firmly believe that the recommendations for medical treatment should come solely from an experienced and reliable physician who has examined the injured worker and who can design the best treatment plan, which often involves pharmaceuticals.
Our pharmacists have extensive experience in specialty pharmacy services and compounding so that we can meet any special needs of your patients who were injured on the job. We know that every workplace injury is different and we can provide specialized dosage, ingredients, combinations, and other forms of approved medications. Throughout the process, we will work directly with the workman’s compensation insurance companies so that you can focus on what you do best—caring for your injured patients.
