I.K. v. Coseco Insurance Company (17-004897)

The claimant sought a determination that his impairments were outside of the MIG and entitlement to medical benefits proposed in five treatment plans. The claimant argued that he should be removed from the MIG due to psychological impairments, chronic pain, and pre-existing migraines and left wrist/arm pain. Adjudicator Boyce found that pursuant to s. 55(1)2 of the SABS the claimant was statute barred from claiming entitlement to a s. 25 psychological assessment for failure to attend an IE assessment. Adjudicator Boyce found that claimant’s impairments were within the MIG and dismissed the application.
