Read a random definition: proof

A quick definition of change of condition:

Change of condition: A term used in workers' compensation and family law to describe a significant worsening of an employee's physical health or a change in circumstances that affects a family law case. In workers' compensation, it may result in an increase in benefits for the employee.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A significant deterioration in an employee's physical health that occurs after receiving workers' compensation benefits, resulting in the employee being eligible for increased benefits. In family law, it refers to a change in circumstances.

  • An employee who was injured on the job and received workers' compensation benefits experiences a worsening of their condition, requiring additional medical treatment and time off work. This change of condition may result in the employee being eligible for increased benefits.
  • In family law, a change of condition could include a parent losing their job, a child's medical needs changing, or a parent relocating to a different state.

These examples illustrate how a change of condition can impact an individual's eligibility for benefits or support. In both cases, the change must be significant enough to warrant a reassessment of the individual's situation and potentially result in an increase in benefits or support.
