4121.63 LIVING MAINTENANCE PAYMENTS
|
|
Claimants who the administrator of workers' compensation
determines could probably be rehabilitated to achieve the
goals established by section 4121.61 of the Revised Code
and who agree to undergo rehabilitation shall be paid living
maintenance payments for a period or periods which do not
exceed six months in the aggregate, unless review by the
administrator or his designee reveals that the claimant
will be benefited by an extension of such payments.
Living maintenance payments shall be paid in weekly amounts,
not to exceed the amount the claimant would receive if the
claimant were being compensated for temporary total disability,
but not less than fifty per cent of the current state average
weekly wage. A claimant receiving living maintenance payments
shall be deemed to be temporarily totally disabled and shall
receive no payment of any type of compensation except as provided
by division (B) of section 4123.57 of the Revised Code for the
periods during which the claimant is receiving living maintenance
payments.
