§ 3758 Insurer Substitution In Claims

Key Takeaways

  • •If your boss has insurance, you can still get money for work injuries even if your boss is no longer involved.
  • •The insurance company takes over if your boss can't pay, so your case keeps going.
  • •You don’t have to start over just because the insurance company is now handling it.

Example

You get hurt at work, and your boss’s insurance company now has to pay instead of your boss.

Even if your boss is out of the picture, the insurance company must still pay for your injury. Your case doesn’t stop—it just continues with the insurance company.
