Workcover and Workers Compensation Insurance Service in Melbourne, Victoria

At Family Clinic Southbank, we are happy to take on new clients for Work Cover and TAC.

Following an injury at work the first person you normally see for treatment is your local General Practitioner. This doctor then takes on the role as the “Nominated Treating Doctor” for the purposes of the workers compensation scheme. The role of the Nominated Treating Doctor is to oversee your medical management as well as participate in the return to work process. The doctor’s primary concern is your medical welfare and to ensure appropriate medical treatment is provided to you to assist in your recovery and return to work

The secondary role of the doctor is to provide information to the workers compensation insurer and rehabilitation provider in respect of the nature of your injury and assist in your return to work.

We do not charge gap fees for Work cover and TAC claims for approved cases.
