N.Y. Volunteer Ambulance Workers' Benefit Law § 12: Nonschedule adjustments

§ 12. Nonschedule adjustments. Notwithstanding any other provision of

this chapter, in any case coming within the provisions of sections ten

and eleven of this article, in which the right to benefits has been

established and benefits have been paid for not less than three months,

in which the continuance of disability cannot be ascertained with

reasonable certainty, the workers' compensation board may, in the

interest of justice, approve a nonschedule adjustment agreed to between

the claimant and the political subdivision liable for the payment of

benefits or its insurance carrier. The provisions of subdivision five-b

of section fifteen of the workers' compensation law shall apply in any

such case.
