Once you're injured, the coverage will reimburse you for the lost time as well as the medical bills. The state has allocated specified amounts for different categories of serious injuries. Such amounts may vary from two thousand to one million. It will cover for your hospital visits, physio-therapies, chiropractic visits etc.

Depending on the state, you are probably going to be required by law to carry worker's compensation coverage for your employees. Commonly, worker's comp is a mandatory purchase; not an optional one. There are some exceptions to the rule, and most states allow "self-insured" worker's compensation environments if certain metrics are met.

What state are you in, what kind of company entity are you planning on creating (self-employed, partnership, etc.) and are you going to hire any workers?

This info will let me give you much more specific details.

It's hard to sue a co. with w comp. benefits for sufferings and pains. However, you may sue a third party if it's warranted. This is done just to ensure that the insured's family manages a decent living in the event the insured gets hurt at work.
