Electronic claim form and medical certificate project

This WorkCover Board Tasmania project has seen contemporary information collection methods applied to Tasmania’s workers compensation claim process, in order to:

• increase the quality of workers compensation claim and medical information collected
• improve the accessibility of the workers compensation claim forms
• support a timelier workers compensation claim submission process.

In early 2024:

• an updated fillable PDF replaced the current paper-based Workers Claim for Compensation Form
• a new single fillable PDF Workers Compensation Certificate of Capacity replaced the current paper-based workers compensation medical certificates.

Notably, this new certificate focuses on capacity rather than incapacity. An updated fillable PDF Claim for Dependents of Deceased Workers Form was also implemented. Printable versions of the updated forms remain available.
