I am back! Update:
Receiving EI sick benefit for now.
Had 1 hour intake/assessment with a benefit assignment officer.
Reviewed a number of traumatic events in detail stretching back 12 years.
Thank god for Ativan!
Referred to WSBC psychologist for in depth analysis.
2 month waitlist.
My psychiatrist lost her shit! Totally ready for war.
She told me to refuse it.
She supportively reminded me that if and when this ends up in court her final assessment is the only thing the panel reviews. Not to worry she's got this. She has dealt with them for over 30 years and never lost an appeal if it comes to that.
Meantime I'm going to sit back heal the wounds of 30+ years of frontline healthcare.
What the fuck eh? We pay into this system all our working lives. I've never asked a damn thing of them.
My last EI claim was in the 80's.
My Psychiatrist is really pissed they dragged me through those events with no offer of support.
She is very clear that I am never going back to healthcare. Wants WSBC to either buy me out or maintain my income to 65 and then pension me off. Wants Future economic and non-economic loss calculated.
Damn!
