They can do either. However, if, when you have reached maximum medical improvement, and if you have a non scheduled injury, and you receive less than 90% of your wage at the time of the injury, you are entitled to a "work disabiity" which is usually worth substantially more than a bodily disability. I suggest that you hire an attorney to represent you. Kansas Workers Compensation law is too complicated to do it yourself.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me.
