Why Injured Workers Travel With Us

Invoiced to the Claim

Where travel is approved, the invoice goes to the claim rather than to the worker. No money out of pocket on the day.

Door to Door

Collected from home and dropped at the right entrance, which matters when movement is restricted.

No Rush at the Other End

Treatment and assessment appointments run over. Waiting is part of the booking, not an extra charge.

Accessible Vehicles

Ramp-equipped vehicles on request, with drivers trained to assist workers with restricted mobility.

Standing Treatment Bookings

Physio and rehab follow a schedule, so we set those up once rather than weekly.

Support People Welcome

A family member, carer or rehabilitation coordinator can travel at no extra charge.

How WorkSafe Transport Works

01

Confirm the Approval

Your employer, agent or case manager confirms with WorkSafe that travel is covered under the claim.

02

Book With the Claim Details

Call us with the claim number, the appointment details and any mobility requirements.

03

Travel and We Invoice

You attend the appointment, and the invoice goes to the claim rather than to you.

Appointments We Cover

Medical Appointments

Hospital visits, surgical reviews and specialist consultations connected to a workplace injury.

Physiotherapy and Rehab

Recurring treatment sessions, arranged as standing bookings so nothing needs rebooking.

Independent Assessments

Medical examinations and assessments arranged as part of the claim process.

Return to Work Programs

Transport supporting a graduated return to work where driving is not yet possible.

WorkSafe Transport for Injured Workers

A workplace injury often rules out driving. Medication, restricted movement and pain all make it a poor idea.

We provide WorkSafe transport to treatment and assessment appointments across the eastern suburbs. Where travel is approved under the claim, we invoice the claim directly.

Consequently, the worker is not paying out of pocket and waiting on a reimbursement.

How Approval and Billing Work

Approval sits with WorkSafe and the claims agent rather than with us.

Your employer, agent or case manager confirms what the claim covers. After that, book with the claim number and we invoice the claim afterwards.

Current entitlements are published by WorkSafe Victoria.

Appointments We Cover

Most trips fall into a handful of categories.

  • Hospital appointments and surgical reviews
  • Physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and rehabilitation
  • Independent medical examinations and assessments
  • Psychology and allied health supports
  • Graduated return to work travel

Door to Door While Recovering

Car parks and public transport are difficult with a back injury or a leg in a brace.

We collect from the door and drop at the entrance closest to the department. Likewise, the driver helps with the walk from the car.

Recurring Treatment Bookings

Rehabilitation usually runs on a fixed schedule for weeks or months.

We set those up as standing bookings. Therefore nobody is making the same phone call every Monday morning.

Accessible Vehicles and Support People

Ramp-equipped vehicles are available on request for workers using a chair or a frame.

A carer, family member or rehabilitation coordinator travels at no extra charge. Our hospital transfers page covers the medical side further.
