If you settle a workers compensation case in NY with a settlement, do they subtract the compensation they already paid you?

W/C pays salary, medical bills and makes a permanent award. Salary and medical bills are not a credit towards the payment of permanency award. If there are salary benefits due you, there will be a credit for past payments made. Otherwise there is no credit on any final payment.
