What to Expect
When you call the EIN Hotline, you will be speaking with a qualified Registered Nurse who will be asking you questions to gather the information needed to complete a medical triage and work with you to determine if formal medical care is needed. If formal medical care is needed, the nurse will arrange your initial medical appointment and provide you with the date/time and location of the medical appointment.
After the initial medical appointment, the physician will assess your injury/illness, provide a treatment plan, address your work status, and if needed, schedule your next follow-up appointment.
After each medical appointment, you will be given a work status report from the physician. The work status report should be provided to your supervisor on the same day, whenever possible, or at the beginning of the next workday.
Your supervisor and the district will review all medical work restrictions and work diligently to accommodate them.
SIA will mail you informational material regarding workers’ compensation, your claim number, and the claims examiner’s contact information.
If you have questions regarding workplace injuries or workers' compensation, please contact the Human Resources Department.
