All active employees (this includes student workers) are covered by the University's workers' compensation insurance policy through The Zenith. Under the terms of this policy, covered employees are required to pick a Treating Doctor from the Zenith Health Care Network. For more information on the Zenith Health Care Network please click: Zenith Health Care Network (ZHCN) Information. Additional information regarding this can be found at:Texas Network Information. If you need emergency care you do not have to go through a ZHCN Treating Doctor, you should go to the nearest emergency room.
To find a ZHCN Treating Doctor you can visit The Zenith's online provider search or you can call them at (800) 841-3987. For additional assistance in locating a Treating Doctor you can contact the Office of Human Resources at (972) 721-5382.
The University's doctor is not a Treating Doctor for workers' compensation injuries. This applies to student workers as well.
Employees who become injured on the job should report the incident to Human Resources as soon as possible at (972) 721-5382. A First Report of Injury must be filed by UD with Zenith within eight days from the date the employee notifies the HR office of an injury that results in more than one day of lost time or of an occupational disease. The injured employee is also required to sign and return to the HR office the ZHCN Workers' Compensation Network Acknowledgement.
