1Opinion of the Court

M. MICHAEL KINARD, Judge.

| ,In this workers’ compensation case, Martha Taggart appeals from the Commission’s decision awarding her wage-loss benefits in the amount of twenty percent. She raises two points on appeal: (1) The amount of wage-loss benefits awarded by the Commission is insufficient; (2) The Commission erred in reversing its original order awarding her attorney fees as the prevailing party on appeal. Because we find merit in appellant’s wage-loss argument, we reverse and remand the case for proceedings consistent with this opinion. We affirm on appellant’s second point.
