Did you know that there is a cap on the number of weeks that an injured worker may receive TTD benefits? Georgia law has placed a 400-week limit on these benefits--that's a little over 7.5 years, for those wanting to pull out a calculator--hence the name "Temporary Total Disability."
This cap is removed if an injury is declared "catastrophic," but the vast majority of workers' comp claims don't fall into the catastrophic category.
