Legal Question in Workers Comp in Missouri

some questions

i had an on the job injury about a week ago where i hit my tailbone. i was seen in the doctor's office that employs me and then went home at the usual end of day. i was called at home about an hour later and told that it was a conflict of interest for me to be seen in my employers office and that i needed to go be seen in the er. i think that i am entitled to be paid for the time that i was in the er, which amt to four hours of my own time, as well as a doctors excused missing of the following day of work (i bruised my tailbone falling out of a chair). am i entitled by law to be paid for the time i spent in the er and the day following? both were directly as a result of my injury at work. thank you.
