Legal Question in Workers Comp in Florida

Your husband is entitled to medical care for the worker's compensation condition even after he gets his permanent impairment rating. This is the point now where the doctor has placed him at maximum medical improvement. It doesn't mean he is all better, it means that this doctor thinks that he is as good as he is going to get. He can continue medical care so long as he sees an authorized workers' compensation doctor at least once per year. He is entitled to a change in physician to dispute maximum medical improvement, but don't do that without a lawyer approving the next physician. As for the check amount, he will receive something called impairment benefits, 3 weeks for each percentage at 75% of his total disability work rate.
