If your injury is permanent, you will be entitled to permanent impairment benefits, but only after you have reached maximum medical improvement or two years have passed and your temporary disability benefits expire.
The amount of PIB benefits you receive is equal to three-quarters of your temporary total disability rate. For example, if your TTD benefits were $800, your PIB benefits will total three-quarters of that, or $600.
If you are permanently disabled but still able to work to some extent, the duration and amount of benefits you receive will be largely determined by your doctor’s evaluation of your injury and an impairment rating they will assign to you. If you know your impairment rating, you can calculate your benefits by using this calculator provided by the Florida Department of Financial Services.
