What is my QME report worth? How does WPI turn into PD?
This video reviews how a WPI rating gets turned into a PD rating, and that into a dollar amount. If you are an injured worker with a California injury, and don’t have an attorney, this video is intended to help provide an overview of workers’ compensation topics so you can better represent yourself.
The PTP and/or the QME will find a certain level of whole person impairment. That gets plugged into the 2005 PDRS, and is adjusted for age and occupation, and potentially lowered due to non-industrial apportionment, and that results in a final PD rating. That rating has a maximum dollar amount assigned to it by the State of California.
Jeremy Lusk is a certified specialist in workers’ compensation with about two decades of experience, and previously served as a Judge at the Fresno District Office of the WCAB. He has worked out of Fresno, but appeared at numerous Boards to represent both injured workers and employers/carriers.
No attorney/client relationship is created or implied by this video. This video is not offering legal advice as to what you should, or should not, do in your workers’ compensation case, but rather offers education/information as to the California workers’ compensation system for unrepresented workers so they can better represent themselves and make more informed decisions.
