Ratings: specific body part and whole person and their correlation to benefits

Ratings can get a little complicated when converting into benefits.　 Ratings should be based on the body part closest to the injury and converted to the “whole person” percentage. There are set percentages that are designated for specific body parts, which then can be converted to a whole person impairment rating. The AMA guidelines are used by almost all Idaho doctors.
