FRED C. SOILIS: Specific loss benefits, which include scarring and disfigurement as well as hearing loss and loss of use claims, are unique claims in the area of workers' compensation. The most important thing that I believe someone needs to know is that these types of benefits are not generally volunteered by the insurance company or the employer. Most people do not recognize or understand if they have a claim for specific loss benefits, particularly scarring, when they've in fact returned back to work following an injury. They may be entitled to additional benefits for disfigurement after they've returned to work. And they may not have been told their rights by the employer or the insurance company.
