Workers' Compensation Discussion Forums

I injured my knee at work and I am out on workers

comp,My question is about my health insurance I get

at work. Does it go to cobra payements at the end of

the month or do I continue to have coverage through

my job because I was hurt at work ?
Another question I have is about social security benefits, I was told that could collect work comp benefits as well as SS disibility benefits at the same time ?
Thanks in advance !

Workers comp law does not control how employers handle their other benefits like health coverage. whether your employer will continue your coverage or require COBRA is their choice.

there is an 80% offset for social security:
