Applicant v. Economical Mutual Insurance Company (17-000846)

The claimant sought entitlement to medical, attendance care, and income replacement benefits. The insurer asserted a MIG position. Adjudicator Nicole Treksler, on review of the evidence, determined that the claimant’s injuries were governed by the MIG and that the claimant failed to establish a substantial inability to perform the essential tasks of employment in the face of evidence that the claimant returned to work. Since the MIG was said to govern, the claimant’s attendant care claim was dismissed summarily pursuant to section 14.
