If there is an injury at a work site in NSW, there is an employer obligation to report this to their insurer within 48 hours. This is the "Initial Notification."

The injured worker is then directed to the nominated GP (who can be their regular GP or a GP the employer recommends) to complete a "Certificate of Capacity."

This certificate addresses 2 aspects in the worker's recovery process - the medical mangement plan for the injury, and 
- the return to work plan

Dr David Le has a strong interest in work injury and management claims. Ashford Avenue Family Practice is currently accepting new patients for WorkCover claims.
