        "text": "Compensation for an occupational injury typically includes medical treatment costs, which cover doctor visits, surgeries, prescriptions, and rehabilitation. You may also be eligible for temporary disability benefits, which replace a portion of your lost wages if you cannot work due to your injury. If your injury results in a permanent impairment, you might receive permanent disability benefits. In some cases, vocational rehabilitation may be provided to help you return to work. A lawyer can help identify all applicable benefits and ensure you receive the maximum compensation you are entitled to under the law.",
