Workmans comp?
is there a chart to determan a disability award ?
Answers:
Depends on the state. Some states do award a disability rating, base on physical ability, or treatment rendered, or earn capacity after reaching your soothing plateau/MMI/P&S. These can be limited by the type of injury you hold and findings of your claim.
No. Workman's comp doesn't do "disability awards". They can do a disability settlement, which would "lump sum" payout future medical and lost wages, base on what the actual lost wages and projected medical costs would be. It's based on the age of the member of staff and current salary.
It is a point system that they use to determine your disability and your doctors dispatch the information to them. Good luck,
No you idiot.
It's base on the % that a doctor says you are disabled. When I get workman's comp for a back injury, I be declared 7% disabled and recieved 21 weeks pay.
