Frequently Asked Questions
What is the deadline to file a workers compensation claim in Illinois?
In Illinois, you generally have 3 years from the date of the accident or 2 years from the last payment of benefits to file a claim. For occupational diseases, the deadline is 3 years from the time you knew or should have known the disease was work related. Missing these deadlines can bar your claim.
Can I choose my own doctor for a workers comp injury in Illinois?
Illinois law allows you to choose your own doctor for treatment of a work injury. However, your employer may have a preferred provider program that requires you to see certain doctors for the first visit. After that, you can switch to a doctor of your choice.
What benefits am I entitled to under Illinois workers compensation?
Illinois workers compensation benefits include medical care, temporary total disability payments at two-thirds of your average weekly wage, permanent partial disability benefits, and vocational rehabilitation. You may also receive death benefits for family members if a worker dies from a job injury.
