How WorkCover Treatment Begins
The process of starting psychological treatment after a workplace injury is designed to be supportive and straightforward. It begins with your general practitioner and continues with specialist care tailored to your recovery.
1. Visit your GP
Your doctor will assess your symptoms and provide a WorkCover Certificate of Capacity, which is the essential first document for your claim.
2. Obtain a referral
Ask your doctor for a specific referral to a psychologist. This referral should confirm that the treatment is related to your workplace injury.
3. Insurer approval
Once you have your certificate and referral, your case manager will review the request for psychological sessions. We can assist in coordinating this step.
4. Commencement of care
With approval in place, we schedule your initial consultation to begin your therapeutic journey towards recovery and workplace return.
