If you are medically retired, are you just SOL financially? Do you get any sort of retirement monthly payment?

Here's the generic FERS medical retirement https://www.opm.gov/retirement-services/publications-forms/pamphlets/ri98-2.pdf
Off the top of my head I don't know if 2152 differs at all or if its covered in an HRPM/Contract.
