TTD vs. PPD

Temporary Total Disability (TTD) benefits are paid while you are unable to work and recovering from your injury. Once you reach Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI), your status may shift to Permanent Partial Disability (PPD)if you have lasting impairments. PPD values are often determined by a state-specific "schedule of benefits" for specific body parts.

Medical Coverage

In almost all jurisdictions, Workers' Compensation covers 100% of reasonable and necessary medical treatment related to the workplace injury. This includes surgery, physical therapy, and prescription medications. Unlike standard health insurance, there are typically no co-pays or deductibles for the injured worker.

Settlement FAQ

What is an Impairment Rating?

After reaching MMI, a doctor will evaluate your permanent physical loss. This rating (0-100%) is used in a formula against your state's benefit schedule to determine the dollar value of your settlement.

Are benefits taxable?

In the United States, Workers' Compensation benefits are generally exempt from federal and state income taxes, allowing the worker to keep the full 2/3 wage replacement amount.
