- Your employer's address and phone number
- The worker's compensation insurance carrier name, address and phone number
- The claim number
- For all worker's compensation cases, patients must also provide BMC with their health insurance card and a referral (if applicable). If the claim is later denied, BMC will then bill their health insurance plan.
