WHO CAN CLAIM?

• Anyone who is injured at work can claim treatment costs. 

​

​

DO I NEED A REFERRAL?

 

• WorkSafe considers chiropractic to be a primary contact service.

• A referral for treatment alone from a medical practitioner is therefore not required.

• If, however, you are claiming for weekly payments (money paid to you for time off work) or are not able to perform your pre-injury employment, you must have a certificate of capacity.

​

HOW DO I OBTAIN A CERTIFICATE OF CAPACITY?

 

• The initial certificate must be completed by a medical practitioner (your general practitioner, surgeon, or psychiatrist) if you need time off work or are not able to perform your pre-injury employment.

• All subsequent certificates can be completed by a medical practitioner or physiotherapist, chiropractor or osteopath. You cannot complete it yourself.

• It is a crucial document in the claims process and activates the support services you need. It is essential to help you return to normal life as soon as possible.
