c. Conversion from Daily to Weekly Basis. If compensation is paid on a daily basis and the<br />

injury later results in permanent disability or a compensable period <strong>of</strong> temporary total disability<br />

longer than 90 calendar days, the CE should convert the pay rate from a daily to a weekly basis.<br />

This action should be taken by the 91st calendar day <strong>of</strong> compensable temporary total disability or<br />

when the evidence shows that permanent disability will result.<br />

When converting to a weekly basis, no adjustment should be made for any prior period paid at the<br />

daily rate if the conversion would reduce the pay rate on which the compensation is computed.<br />

However, such an adjustment for the prior period should be made whenever the conversion<br />

increases the pay rate used.<br />

d. Compensation for Death. These payments are computed on a monthly (calendar day)<br />

basis. When there is more than one beneficiary, the gross compensation is computed for all<br />

beneficiaries and then prorated to determine each individual's compensation.<br />

(1) Periodic (28-day) payments are computed as follows:<br />

Monthly pay rate x compensation rate =amount rounded to the nearest $.01 x 12/13<br />

(2) Supplemental payments (any period <strong>of</strong> calendar days not evenly divisible by 28) are<br />

computed using calendar days:<br />

Monthly pay rate x compensation rate =amount rounded to the nearest $.01 x no. calendar<br />

days/30<br />
