Re: injury
Whoa.
If you were hurt at work, you should be covered by Workers Compensation Insurance. You will be filling out information about how and where you were hurt, and your regular medical insurance will not cover a workplace injury...it's excluded. Putting it on your regular medical coverage will be tantamount to an admission that you were not hurt on the job, which could affect your rights down the road.
