Description
On April 13, 1989, Hobson filed an application with the commission for permanent partial disability benefits. Four days later, Dr. Grasinger informed the commission that Hobson "will have a permanent impairment from his injury [and that the] degree of permanency will be determined on his return visit in two months." In June, however, the doctor reported to the commission that he was uncertain as to the permanent disability rating because of continued active treatment. It was not until August 2, 1989, that Grasinger was able to specify a "40% impairment to the left wrist and a 20% impairment of the left upper extremity." At the August 16 evidentiary hearing, Hobson relied upon the treatment records that Dr. Grasinger had been filing with the commission since October 1988, which indicated that treatment began in April 1987, and was continuing. The deputy commissioner entered an award in Hobsons favor. On appeal, the full commission affirmed the award.
