Maximum Medical CureA seaman is considered to have reached maximum medical cure when their condition will no longer improve despite further medical treatment. If a seaman becomes disabled in such a way that they cease to recover, and are permanently disabled, then treatment does not entitle them to any further maintenance and cure. When this is in dispute, however, the courts often resolve the dispute in favor of the injured seaman.
