Only if you can prove that your wife got the warts b/c of a work-related activity (I don't think you'll be able to prove that.).

Many occupations (such as poultry workrs being exposed to infected animals) are the probable cause of warts. If her doctor can state that the most likely cause was her exposure at work then it is a workers' compensation case.
