Outside of Purdue Campus Areas
If you’re outside Purdue’s campus areas, contact your supervisor, or contact Christie at JWF at 800-359‐6659, for information about where to go for care.
Tell the health care provider to send the bill to JWF Specialty instead of to your medical insurance plan.
NOTE: Medical treatment beyond the initial visit requires approval by Purdue’s worker’s compensation insurance carrier, JWF Specialty. If you do not obtain pre-approval, your medical expenses may be denied, leaving you to pay the bill.
Emergency Transportation
Ambulance Not Needed:
If you can safely drive yourself, you may use your own vehicle to go to an approved medical provider.
Your supervisor or another designated person may drive you to an approved medical provider using his or her own vehicle or one owned by the university.
If someone drives his or her own vehicle, the driver assumes liability for any damage to the vehicle or to any other involved vehicles, if an accident occurs.
Examples of injuries that do not require an ambulance:
- Rashes
- Abrasions, bruises, minor lacerations
- Punctures, splinters
- Minor burns
- Dirt or dust in the eye
- Sprains, strains
- Repetitive motion injuries
Ambulance Needed:
If the situation is a medical emergency, call 911. If you are calling from a non-campus phone, let the operator know that you are on the Purdue campus. The operator either will transfer your call to the Purdue dispatcher or will call for the Purdue ambulance.
Whenever there is doubt about the severity of an injury, err on the side of caution and call an ambulance.
Examples of injuries or health problems that require an ambulance:
- Chest pain
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Diabetic emergencies
- Loss of consciousness, combative or confused
- Head injury or serious blow to the head
- Uncontrolled bleeding
- Fractures and dislocations
- Falls from height or down stairs
- Injuries of the spine, neck or back/ severe back pain
- Eye injuries / chemicals in the eye
- Chemical burns
- Any injury that causes severe pain
Some of the above may not be conditions that qualify under Worker’s Compensation, but are emergency events that require prompt action.
