What Is an Occupational Health Clinic?
An occupational health clinic is a medical facility that specifically treats work-related injuries or incidents and helps companies conduct pre-employment drug screenings and random drug testing. Unlike hospitals and private clinics, an occupational health clinic is used to working only with employers and has specific knowledge of worker’s compensation benefits. That is not to say that an injured worker could not seek medical attention from a private facility and still receive worker’s compensation benefits, but an occupational health clinic typically does not deal with private insurance companies.
