I am sure most states are the same. When a workers compensation injury happens, workers comp pays hospital bills, etc., usually a weekly stipend, and then when all is taken care of a rating is given--as to loss of usage....and payment is based on that. SO, everyone is different as to the amount of workers compensation payment, based on the rating issued by the doctor. Good luck with all of this.
