This is one of the most overlooked benefits; a change of doctor may lead to on-going weekly compensation benefits, and may increase the value of your claim. Income benefits: You may be entitled to on-going weekly compensation benefits while you are unable to work. We can facilitate that. Compensation for permanent impairment: Your doctor may assign an impairment rating to your body; insurance companies often do not tell you this.
