Manitoba Northern Companion Guide: The Crossing

Flin Flon, The Pas, Thompson. If the WCB books your assessment in Winnipeg, most of a day is gone before anyone has looked at you.

That day costs you something, and so does the next one, and the one after that. The WCB will reimburse a good deal of it if you can show what you spent, which is easier said than done when the receipts are living in the glovebox.

What's inside?

• Which door to knock on first in Manitoba, and in what order. WCB travel reimbursement to begin with, then Northern Patient Transportation and Hope Air
• A travel log with room for the distance, whether someone had to come with you, and whether you stayed the night
• A costs and receipts page that adds up what getting to your own care has cost you
• A call log for every conversation with the WCB, and a follow-up template so you can put it in writing afterward
• A daily recovery record, and a weekly check on what you can and can't do yet

How does it fit with your other guides?

Your National Workplace Injury Recovery Guide is where the day to day lives: symptoms, appointments, calls, costs. Your Manitoba Workplace Injury Companion Guide carries the deadlines, the forms and the appeal route through WCB review, then the Appeal Commission. This one covers the travel, which up north tends to be the part that wears people down.

25 pages. Fillable PDF with 121 form fields, so you can type into it on a phone, a tablet or a computer, and it opens in any PDF reader. Instant download.
