My injury is cosidered log term and I have to have surgery on my shoulder. I am trying to find out what a good settlement is for this injury. I can't seem to get any straight answers. I have been out of work since Jan. and it is going to be six months after surgery before I can even consider going back to work. So I will be out of work for about 13 months. I am really concerned that I will not be able to do heavy equipment operating again. I have torn the rotor cuff in my shoulder. I would appreciate any input anyone has to help me feel alittle better about my workmen's compensation suit. Thank you for your time and help... Dwren56@Yahoo.com
The workman's comp settlement scale for rotator cuff surgery depends on a variety of factors including how long the employee is off work and how serious the injury is. In general, employees can expect to receive two-thirds of their salary for this type of injury.

As each state's criteria for eligibility and amount of workman's comp payable differs, you need to contact your state's office for clarification.
Depends on your percentage of permanent disability after surgery was paid for by your employer.
Generally they just pay medical costs unless you can illustrate other losses.
