Not having health insurance will not effect the Worker's Comp claim as long as the claim is directly related to an on the job injury. Worker's Comp is designed to help pay the medical bills directly related to an on the job injury. Health insurance generally does not pay for anything related to an on the job injury, because of Worker's Comp.
