What if I receive an impairment rating or have a scar?

 

A: When the doctor releases you with an impairment rating or if you have a non-surgical scar that can be seen at least eight feet away, you are entitled to compensation for the permanent nature of the injury.  The amount of compensation is dependent on a number of factors, such as degree of impairment, age, educational background, work history, compensation rate, body part or parts affected, your residual functional capacity, you loss of earning capacity and the size and nature of any lasting scar.
