Software AMA Guides 6th edition

According to AMA:

 

Medical impairment:Functional loss


 The AMA Guides provides impairment ratings for

 

certain medical conditions based on the extent of the

 

functional loss. Example 15-25 at pages 477-48

 

explains how to determine the rating for a person

 

who sustained significant shoulder motion deficits

 

related to her constant overhead work. Her condition

 

warranted an 18  percent impairment rating for the

 

upper extremity and an 11 percent impairment

 

rating for the whole person.
