Timing lens
See what changes around MMI
MMI is a medical milestone. Use this view to separate a ready-to-rate claim from one that still needs treatment or a final report.
A settlement can involve disputed issues before MMI, but settling early may affect future treatment and rating questions.

This is an educational estimate. State rules, caps, medical evidence, attorney fees, and future care can change the result.
Maximum medical improvement, or MMI, is a medical milestone rather than a dollar amount. This workers comp settlement calculator can help you explore a planning range, while the guide explains why the MMI date and final rating matter.
Use every figure as a starting point. Benefit caps, scheduled losses, deadlines, medical evidence, and settlement terms vary by state and by claim.
MMI planning examples
An MMI date can change which medical evidence is available and when a permanent rating is considered final. It does not guarantee that a claim should settle.
Can I settle before MMI?
Some claims discuss partial or disputed issues before MMI, but settling too early can make future treatment and rating questions harder to resolve. Ask a qualified professional about the risks for your state.
