A: Yes, under most circumstances, you are entitled to a settlement (money) for your work injury.
Missouri law states that if you have sustained a permanent injury to your body, you are entitled to a settlement (money) from the insurance company. This is a lump sum of money that is paid to you after your injury has been treated and after you have recovered to the fullest medical extent possible. The permanent partial disability benefit, often called PPD, is paid to compensate you for the permanent residual effect of your injury.
