Workers Compensation: Overview

At Florida Advanced Spine and Orthopedics (FASO), our workers' compensation program has highly trained physicians and staff that are committed to helping all workers’ compensation patients get back to work as quickly and safely as possible. Our group is focused on reducing medical costs and time lost from work while providing the most comprehensive care to the injured worker. Our physicians communicate closely with employers, case managers, adjusters and insurance companies to provide complete care for the injured worker. The FASO team is dedicated exclusively to evaluating and treating work related injuries and conditions in a timely and efficient manner.

For our patients, we provide prompt specialty trained orthopedic care for virtually all areas of the body. Our team will first consider nonsurgical, conservative treatment, and will only recommend surgery if absolutely necessary.

Our team works closely with the case managers and adjusters to ensure efficient processing in scheduling, submitting status reports, authorization request, answering questions, and providing assistance whenever needed.

We are conveniently located in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, and Hernando counties. Our facility offers board certified orthopedists, bilingual staff, same day status reports, timely and concise written reports, and dedicated workers ’ compensation coordinators.

Starting A Claim

Notifying your employer is the first step to starting a workers’ compensation claim. In Florida, you must report most injuries within 30 days. If a condition or illness develops over time, you must notify your employer within 30 days of discovering its relationship to your work. You may lose some or all of your benefits if you do not notify your employer within these deadlines.
When you notify your employer, provide as much detail as possible, including:

  • When the accident happened
  • How you hurt yourself, and
  • What symptoms you are experiencing

Once you report an injury, your employer should send you to an occupational doctor. In Florida, your employer gets to choose your treating doctor unless you need emergency treatment. It is important to provide the doctor with accurate information about the cause of your injuries and the severity of your symptoms.
