Impairment Evaluation
Impairment evaluation is a process used to determine the extent of functional loss or disability someone has because of an injury or medical condition. It involves assessing how much a person's ability to perform everyday activities or work has been affected. This assessment helps to quantify impairment, often for purposes such as insurance claims, workers' compensation, or disability benefits. Experts review medical reports and may conduct physical examinations to arrive at a percentage that represents the degree of impairment, supporting fair decisions regarding support, compensation, or treatment planning.
