Iowa Workers’ Compensation Attorneys
Most workers in Iowa are covered under their employer’s workers’ compensation insurance in the event of an injury on the job or a work-related temporary or permanent disability. Policy coverage includes:
- Full injury-related medical care provided by an approved physician or health care provider
- Wage or salary pay while out of work recovering from a temporary partial or total disability
- Income ‘gap’ benefits after returning to work at restricted capacity and reduced earnings
- Permanent income benefits or lump-sum settlement for permanent partial or total disability
- Job skills training for a new job if unable to return to work in former capacity
