In addition, to a certain and restricted extent, it will help compensate somebody for their lost earnings or lost wages. There are monthly caps of up to $2,000 per month, or approximately 80% of their salary, but it’s something above and beyond the medical expenses.
So, there are lost wages, and other expenses can also be covered. Travel expenses to and from medical care and doctors, home health aides, home health care, and assistance with maintaining a home, if timely and properly submitted, should also be covered under the no-fault law in New York.
