Workers' Compensation

All work related injuries must be reported to the employee's supervisor or by contacting Human Resources at 320-308-3203 within 24 hours of the date/time of the injury, at which time the supervisor, along with the injured employee, will need to complete the Incident/Injury/Illness Data Form (IDF) and the Supplemental Details Form.  If the injury is life threatening or fatal, Human Resources must be notified immediately. 

If the injury is critical call 9-911.

The IDF (Incident/Injury/Illness Data Form) and other appropriate forms must be filed with the Human Resources office within 24 hours for receipt of notice of:

• Any injury alleged to have risen out of and in the course of employment that incapacitates an employee from earning wages for 3 or more days.
• Any injury that requires medical expenses to be paid.
• Any job-related damage to eyeglasses or a prosthetic device.
• The death of an employee as a result of a job related injury. If the employee dies at the work site, you must file an IDF regardless of the reason for death.

The employer & employee should retain a copy of the IDF. IDF forms are available in the supervisor or dean’s office, Human Resources office or download from Admin Minnesota. Please also complete the Supplemental Details Form. Supervisors of the injured employee, along with the employee,must also review and complete the Supervisors checklist to ensure all appropriate forms are completed and the injured employee receives proper paperwork. All forms can also be found at the State Workers Compensation website.

If injured in the course of your work, you may receive treatment from a medical doctor, chiropractor, podiatrist, osteopath, or dentist, if the treatment is available within the community and is appropriate for the injury or illness. You must receive all necessary medical treatment for your work injury from a health care provider who is a member of CorVel’s plan, except in the following circumstances: you have already established a treating relationship with a non-participating provider (who maintains your medical records)* prior to the work-related injury; or if you require emergency treatment. If you want to see a non-participating provider, please call Cor-Vel at (612) 436-2542 or (866) 399-8541. You will be asked to provide proof of an established treating relationship with the non-participating provider.
