WCB Medical Impairment Guidelines

The NYS Workers’ Compensation Board website provides a document known as the “Workers’ Compensation Guidelines for Determining Impairment“. This document is a resource used by claims professionals and licensed medical professionals to determine the degree of impairment and, subsequently, the effect the impairment will have on the injured worker’s earning potential.

For your convenience, we have created individual PDF references pulled from the original Guidelines specific to each body part. Click the appropriate button below to access the Guidelines for that specific body part!
