RE: need settlement % disablity chart

AMA ratings are complex. However, some parts are avaliable on-line. You can read over them but it will only give you a general idea. I've had 3 impairment ratings done by 3 different doctors on the same injury(spine) and all 3 are different. The AMA guidelines are specific but not all doctors take the time to get certified but they do the ratings anyway. It really screws things up for the injured worker.
