Even though you're out of work due to a worker's comp case, your premiums for your medical insurance still need to be paid. Just keep in mind that your medical insurance pays for medical illness and isn't related to worker's comp. Your employer may be willing to help you pay the premiums until you get back to work.

FICA has nothing to do with workers' comp. FICA are the deductions for Social Security (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) and Medicare.
