4 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROCESSING A WORKERS COMPENSATION REPORT OF INJURY OR ILLNESS FOR SEMINOLE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS 1. When an employee reports that he/she has suffered a work related injury, the employee must complete a First Report of Injury or Illness form, Form DFS-F2-DWC-1 (this includes employees working through a temporary staffing employment agency, see page 14). If the employee cannot sign or fill out the form, the workers compensation contact is to complete the form to the extent of known information. 2. The First Report of Injury or Illness form must be completed using the electronic Word template. The employee has to provide the information necessary to complete the electronic form. The employee must designate the date on which the injury occurred and/or the claimed condition or illness manifested. The cost center workers compensation contact should not assist the employee in determining what date is to be used. The workers compensation contacts must print the electronic form and have the employee review and sign the form. 3. The workers compensation contact must keep the original signed form in the injured employee s workers compensation file at the cost center. Again, if the employee cannot sign the First Report of Injury or Illness form, the signature box, located on the bottom of the form is to be marked not available at this time. An amended form is to be completed as soon as the injured employee is able to sign. A copy of the form should be given to the cost center supervisor, as well as any medical work status information received by a doctor. 4. The completed First Report of Injury or Illness form for employees should then be ed to Dawn Lobkovich at dawn_lobkovich@scps.k12.fl.us in the Risk Management Department within one business day. The subject line should read: First Report of Injury and illness or simply FROI. Risk Management will need a copy of the signed First Report of Injury or Illness form with the employee s signature for the Risk Management file, which can be sent via courier or fax to (407) or ext Temporary Staffing Employees: Any person employed by a temporary staffing agency who has been assigned to work at a SCSB facility and who has suffered an injury in the course of performing his or her employment duties will need to be referred to the temporary staffing agency s workers compensation contact (see page 14). (Give the injured temporary worker a copy of page 14 and document in writing that the temporary worker has been given the reporting information). Any person who is not employed by SCSB but who is injured while at an SCSB facility should be referred to that person s employer s workers compensation contact. 3

5 HOWEVER, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR INVESTIGATE ANY CLAIMED INJURIES AND COMPLETES AN INJURY REPORT FORM FOR THE INCIDENT WHETHER OR NOT TREATMENT IS REQUESTED (SCSB Form No.447). 6. Medical Treatment Claims: Once the employee has requested to seek medical treatment, in addition to completing the First Report of Injury or Illness form, the following forms should be filled out. The forms listed below are not to be given to employees hired through a temporary employment agency, see page 14: Notification Form (Page 8) Medical Report for Treatment Form (Page 10) PMOA Workers Compensation Prescription Information Form (Page 11) The following forms are to be given to the regular employees to take along to the doctor for treatment. Again, the forms listed below are not to be given to employees hired through a temporary employment agency, see page 14: Medical Report for Treatment Form (Page 10) PMOA Workers Compensation Prescription Information Form (Page 11) (Please note: that the PMOA Workers Compensation Prescription Information included is temporary. A prescription card will be mailed to the injured employee s home address.) The following forms are to be given to the employee for their information: Medical Provider List (Page 9) The workers compensation contact should then direct the employee to the most convenient Centra Care or Care Spot Medical Facility, and the workers compensation contact should keep a copy of all forms given to the injured employee for the employee s workers compensation file. 7. Report Only Claims: The workers compensation contacts are to give the injured employee the following documents only if they are not seeking medical attention, in addition to the First Report of Injury or Illness form: Notification Form (Page 8) Please note that if at a later date the injured employee wants to seek medical treatment, update the First Report of Injury or Illness form to show that the injured employee wishes to seek medical treatment and refer back to steps #4 and #6. When there is a delay, the adjuster should make the determination on referral for care unless it is a true emergency (if care is delayed, it shouldn t be an emergency). 4

6 8. The workers compensation contact does not need to obtain a signed Choice Form (Page 13), until the employee is taken off duty by a doctor. Then if the employee wants to charge the difference between workers compensation pay and his/her full salary, the employee may choose to use part of his/her sick leave or vacation leave. The workers compensation contact is to send the original signed Choice Form (Page 13) to the cost center s payroll specialist in the Human Resources Department and place a copy in the injured employee s file at the cost center. Do not send a copy of this form to Risk Management. 9. The first ten (10) days of an injured employee s absence from work due to doctor s orders (must be verified by a signed notice from the authorized workers compensation doctor) is to be reported as In-Line-of-Duty-Leave (payroll code: INDLV). Workers compensation will take effect for payment of wage benefits for the employee starting on the 11 th day. The 11 th day, and thereafter, should be reported under workers compensation payroll code: WKCOMP. Under all circumstances, when an injured worker has been written out of work by the doctor, the Risk Management Department must be notified immediately. If the employee is not out for the full ten (10) days, the unused days may be used if the employee requires additional time off (due to doctor s written orders) for additional treatment, etc. The maximum that will be paid is ten (10) days per year. Please note that only unused days relating to a specific injury will be carried forward to subsequent years. The workers compensation contacts are to report all time missed by the injured employee to Risk Management Department on a weekly basis via The workers compensation contacts are to report any change in status, such as, if the injured employee is placed on light duty, modified duty, etc., to Florida School Boards Insurance Trust (FSBIT) via fax, or telephone contact. The Risk Management Department must be notified as well. 11. Please call Florida School Boards Insurance Trust (FSBIT), if you have any workers compensation questions. The School Board has contracted with Florida School Boards Insurance Trust to process all workers compensation claims. Please advise employees to call FSBIT with any questions. Employees who call Risk Management will be redirected to Florida School Boards Insurance Trust. 5

The social security number will be used as a unique identifier in Division of Workers' Compensation database systems for individuals who have claimed benefits under Chapter 440, Florida Statutes. It will also be used to identify information and documents in those database systems regarding individuals who have claimed benefits under Chapter 440, Florida Statutes, for internal agency tracking purposes and for purposes of responding to both public records requests and subpoenas that require production of specified documents. The social security number may also be used for any other purpose specifically required or authorized by state or federal law. (Added 05/2011) 7

16 Here are just a couple Work Comp issues that keep coming up: 1. NEVER use a previously submitted First Report of Injury even if it is for the same employee. A new document must be used each time. When old forms are used, information does not get changed such as dates, social security numbers, employee positions, etc Please remember to fax or send via courier the SIGNED First Reports of Injury to Dawn Lobkovich ASAP. The original signed FROI stays at the cost center. Risk Management only get a copy. If the employee is unable to sign, please send it to Dawn upon their return. 3. Be sure to the ELECTRONIC version as well to Dawn as scanned copies will not upload. The electronic version will not have a signature on it. 4. FSBIT Adjusters: Karey Edwards, handles last names A-0, (800) Ext 315 and Krista Casey, handles last names P-Z, (800) Ext 318 FSBIT FAX: (850) Please remember to fax (5-0411) or send via courier any notes from the doctor to Dawn Lobkovich as well as the assigned FSBIT adjuster. 6. All bug bites, bee stings etc MUST be pre-approved by FSBIT before sending any employee for treatment. Of course, if they are allergic and are having a life threatening emergency, respond as you would to any emergency. 7. If an injury is ESE related, please indicate that on the Occupation line. (Ex: Teacher-ESE) 8. WC Weekly Report: Please submit a response EACH WEEK with SPECIFIC dates the employee is out even if they are out for an extended period of time. I will also need notification of the specific DAY they returned from WC. In-Line- Of-Duty days are only used for days that a DOCTOR specifically puts an employee out of work. We do not key employees out for follow-up appointments with the doctor. The employee is expected to return to work after the appointment or report to work prior to an appointment if there is reasonable amount of time to do so. We do not key in partial In-Line-Of-Duty days. 9. If an employee is put on light duty and the school cannot meet the light duty restrictions, an administrator is to contact David Apfelbaum immediately to discuss other options. His contact number is (407) It is mandatory that the Work Comp Posters are posted in all staff work rooms, mailrooms and the cafeteria staff dining room. Please contact Dawn if you need more. Both the English and Spanish version need to be posted. 15
