COMCARE Health Services: Understanding Your Worker's Compensation Options

COMCARE (the Commonwealth Employees' Compensation Act and Rehabilitation Scheme) is an Australian Government agency that provides workers' compensation to Australian Government employees for work-related injuries or illnesses. It does not offer direct health services to employees.

Employees covered by COMCARE who require health services for work-related injuries or illnesses are typically referred to appropriate healthcare providers or medical specialists by their treating doctors or the COMCARE rehabilitation provider engaged on their behalf. Medical treatment and rehabilitation expenses are covered by COMCARE as part of employees' workers' compensation entitlement.
