There are a number of different types of temporary disability benefits. One type is Healing Period benefits.

Healing period benefits are given to workers who are recovering from a workplace injury that resulted in permanent impairment. These benefits start the day after the injury occurs and continue until the worker returns to work, recovers as much as possible from the injury, or is medically capable of returning to his or her previous job.

If you or anyone you know has questions about healing period benefits, contact the Des Moines workers’ compensation attorneys of LaMarca & Landry, P.C. at 877-327-2600.
