I had to pay out of pocket for my GP appointment. When can I expect to be reimbursed by the insurer?

As long as your claim is approved, your expenses will be reimbursed. Reimbursement timelines can vary from insurer to insurer.

Injured workers often worry about needing to make upfront payment for medical appointments and services related to their workplace injury.

The time it takes for an insurer to reimburse medical expenses can vary, but generally, once a claim has been accepted and all necessary documentation has been provided, insurers are expected to process reimbursements promptly.

Many insurers aim to reimburse approved expenses within 10 to 20 business days. This may depend on the complexity of the claim and the specific insurer's policies. It's best to check directly with your insurer for specific timelines.
