How are impairment ratings calculated. I’ve searched everywhere but it’s different for everyone. I came across a calculator but the page does not open.
Thanks in advance

P.S. an impairment rating is not the same as a disability rating.
the glossary will provide basic definitions:

make sure any impairment rating is evaluated by the DEU for a correct PD calculation.
Once you have a final PD rating, there are tables that will make it easier to convert the % into a $$$ amount.
