What Qualifies as a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury results in long-term or permanent impairment. It may take away a person's ability to earn a living, care for themselves, or enjoy life as they once did. These are injuries that require intensive treatment, often for a lifetime. They may include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Paralysis or spinal cord damage
- Third-degree burns and disfigurement
- Loss of limbs or amputation injuries
- Total or partial vision or hearing loss
- Complex fractures requiring surgical reconstruction
- Severe internal organ injuries
