Repair of a torn meniscus is not usually a liability issue for which one receives compensation since they are usually the result of normal tissue deterioration or are generally the result of self-inflicted injuries. Thus, you wouldn't receive anything directly (unless you are self-insured) and your medical providers will be compensated for their services according the payment scale of your insuror.
