Workers Compensation Clinic in Washington for Work Injury Care
Authorized L&I Treatment at Our Blue Springs & Overland Park Clinics
At Core Medical Center, we proudly accept Washington State Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) workers' compensation claims for patients needing out-of-state care. If you're a Washington State worker temporarily or permanently outside of WA, we are one of the only providers in the Kansas City metro area that can treat L&I patients with full documentation and compliance.
We provide specialized care and documentation support for L&I-approved treatments, helping injured Washington workers continue their recovery—even when they're hundreds of miles from home.
What is Workers Compensation?
Core Medical Center offers comprehensive medical services that help keep you on the job and working at peak performance. We also implement occupational health procedures that can stop problems early on – before serious conditions can develop. It is a combination of treatment and prevention that is very effective.
We realize that not all injury management programs are alike. Therefore, protocols specific to you are kept on file at our clinic. This allows clinic staff to efficiently follow your care plan and ensure that you get the help you need without the waiting or uncertainty.
