If you are on Medicare, a workers compensation settlement that surrenders medical care as part of the settlement will need Medicare approval. Oftentimes, that approval is obtained by submitting an MSA or Medicare Set Aside proposal to Medicare to pay the future medical bills necessitated by the accident.
