When your doctor recommends spinal fusion surgery to treat your work-related injury, you deserve workers’ compensation benefits that fully cover your medical expenses and lost wages. Unfortunately, many injured workers encounter resistance from employers and insurance companies when seeking approval for this major procedure.

If your employer or their insurer pushes back on the need for your necessary surgery, contact our Rome workers’ compensation lawyers. You deserve the best, so don’t settle for less!

What is Spinal Fusion Surgery?

Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that permanently connects two or more vertebrae in your spine. This procedure eliminates motion between these bones and prevents the stretching of nerves, ligaments, and muscles that may be causing pain.

Given the significant recovery time and potential for permanent limitations, spinal fusion surgery claims often involve substantial workers’ compensation benefits, which is why these claims face heightened scrutiny from insurance companies and why you may need the help of our Rome personal injury lawyers.

Workplace accidents that commonly lead to spinal fusion surgery include:

  • Falls from heights at construction sites
  • Heavy lifting injuries in warehouses or manufacturing
  • Vehicle accidents while on the job
  • Being struck by falling objects
  • Repetitive motion injuries that develop over time

Georgia Workers’ Compensation Coverage for Spinal Fusion

Under Georgia workers’ compensation law, you’re entitled to medical treatment that is reasonable, necessary, and related to your workplace injury. This includes spinal fusion surgery when medically appropriate. The key benefits you may be entitled to include:

  • Pre-surgical consultations and imaging studies
  • The spinal fusion procedure itself
  • Hospital stays
  • Prescribed medications
  • Rehabilitation therapy
  • Follow-up appointments
  • Assistive devices like back braces

Income benefits are also available if your spinal fusion prevents you from working. These typically fall into three categories:

  • Temporary Total Disability (TTD) benefits if you cannot work at all during recovery
  • Temporary Partial Disability (TPD) benefits if you can work but earn less than before
  • Permanent Partial Disability (PPD) benefits if your injury causes permanent impairment

Common Challenges with Spinal Fusion Claims in Rome

Spinal fusion claims often face particular challenges in the workers’ compensation system. Understanding these potential obstacles can help you prepare for the process ahead.

Insurance companies frequently dispute spinal fusion claims by arguing that:

  • The need for surgery stems from pre-existing conditions rather than workplace injury
  • Conservative treatment options haven’t been fully explored
  • The procedure isn’t medically necessary
  • The injury didn’t occur at work

Additionally, even when spinal fusion surgery is approved, injured workers may face:

  • Delays in authorization for the procedure
  • Disputes about the appropriate length of recovery time
  • Pressure to return to work before fully healed
  • Inadequate consideration of permanent restrictions
