Fainted at Work - Please help

Hi All,

One of my friend fainted at last week and we took him to emergency(NY). It was a bad fall and he was hurt in face also. He was kept in emergency for one week.

Is this a Work related injpay ury? When asked, the insurance said they can cover only 80% of bill. I am tying to understand how workers comp come into this? Will that help pay his co-pay and the other 20% of the bills?

Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Thank you very much.

I am not so sure about work comp rules but in your friend's case I think the injury is not work related. His injury is not attributable to his work place or his work. For example if he fell off a ladder and hurt himself while performing some work that would be work related and worker comp would cover it 100%. If someone has a heart attack at his work place I don't think it would come under workers comp.

His regular health insurance should cover his medical expenses depending on the plan.
