WorkCover Injury Assessments

WorkCover Injury Assessments

At Paterson Healthcare, our doctors provide WorkCover assessments for injured workers. Assessments are conducted in line with current NSW Work Health and Safety requirements and may include medical evaluation, documentation, and coordination of care where clinically appropriate.
We conduct thorough medical evaluations under WorkCover and Third Party claims, ensuring each injury is carefully assessed, documented, and managed in line with current NSW Work Health and Safety (WHS) requirements. Whether it is a physical injury or a stress-related condition, our doctors provide personalised care and clear medical reporting to support your recovery.
We also work closely with employers, insurers, and allied health providers to coordinate care and streamline your return-to-work plan. Early assessment and proper management play a key role in long-term recovery — and that is exactly what we focus on.

Workers' Compensation Billing Information

Worker’s Compensation consultations are invoiced based on rates approved by WorkCover.

It is the responsibility of the patient to pay upfront the cost of worker cover certification and they may be able to claim some or all of this cost back from their insurance company, depending on their policy.

Once a patient visits the clinic, they are required to book an appointment and pay for the consultation on the day.

If the patient is affiliated with an insurance company, it is their responsibility to handle any claims directly.

The clinic does not liaise with or bill insurance companies, nor does it send invoices to them, on behalf of the patient for standard consultations, certificates, or reports.
