as I posted to you before, you should start your own thread and not hijack another--it confuses the many readers who are searching for specific answers.
there is no set time for every case.
scheduled loss of use table is here

see chapter 8

each state has their own work comp laws.
every state has a website that give links to information about those laws
Massachusetts does not use scheduled loss of use but does make payments for amputation of specific body parts
