How much money would you take if someone offered to cut your arm off?

And Alan takes off the gloves.
Workers' comp (which I used to do) usually uses the Florida Impairment Guides. My office usually uses the AMA Guides for BI and PI cases (which I now do) so I pulled the book. I couldn't find it online.
Page 441, Fig. 16-2, is the identical picture and ratings as used by the Florida Guide. Go figure.

Losing a thumb in itself is a 22% whole body impairment whereas losing a ring or little finger completely is only a 5% whole body impairment for each one. That's using the AMA Guides.

Yeah, I've never done comp at all, Gilley. I don't believe there is an online AMA guide, either. I have the 5th edition here, but as I said yesterday, someone 'borrowed' it again. In fact, I sent a nasty little email last night but the 'return fairy' hasn't deposited it in my office, yet...

90% of all men and woman **********....the other 10%....no arms! Now if you're only giving up one arm....lol..then there are some great paddle shifters out there that you could use a prosthectic on and not be stuck in an AT like I am now!
