Work Cover Slaughter 20+ Years

[sherlocks]

Hello I have to share my Mental Health Treatment Recovery To The Now This . What am I? What’s left Of Me ?My Mental Health Journey Under Work Cover Insurers of 20+ Years!.

 I have been under my insurer for my work place injury, I think it’s time to share me, I have been trying to recover from my mental health for so long now. Sad truth is I have had to beg for admission in a suicidal state, I have to get approval from administration to decide if I can have treatment. I have to wait until they decide if I am approved admission. This could take two weeks or more, I’m waiting in a mentally severe fragile state. I have recently experienced interference in my recovery two weeks on a four week program and they refuse further care and admission. The Claim Manager Not a Doctor Not a Medical Practitioner an office worker. It was embarrassing and shameful. I had an attempt on my life woke up 2 days later on the floor. I experienced a mental health breakdown needing urgent care and nothing. Three weeks later I get approval for another two week stay. I had a breakdown attempt on my life waiting waiting waiting for Claim manager’s decision. I have been abused denied and lied to and faked my identity it has been a deathly painful abuse neglect of a serious corrupt broken system

Hi, welcome

Indeed in any state it seems the WC system is broken. Why is this?

I worked 18 years in the WC system as an assessor in my own business. As a guess about 75% of claims have fraudulent parts of their claim either fully fraudulent or partial (exaggeration). With this in mind imagine the huge costs to the insured to get WC cover on all employees. 

So with this in mind what can insurers do but doubt claims as they come by them until proven to be accurate or suspicious. The result of this is that the system has eroded to such a degree that the honest claimant is treated poorly like all the rest. Hence its why they seek out the frauds.

So treat the system as a game, play the game and accept that the game is how it is, it wont change. That means you wont get much satisfaction from them and I sympathise with you a lot because unlike many claims your needs arise immediately because you cant predict your mental health decline to the point of suicidal thoughts and/or attempts when hospitalisation is a must.

My only recommendation is if you havent already done so- seek out a WC solicitor and discuss the situation with them. They might know of a method of bypassing the insuring company for emergency needs and for the medical organisation to chase up payments etc by themselves. 

I come from a family thats had 2 suicides', myself an attempt and daughter same etc. This site can be supportive and we have a large library using the search bar. I encourage you to write in whenever you feel the need and chat away, to release your frustration and seek support. 

I hope that information is beneficial.

Wow thank you thank you for Sharing. I’m a Victim  Injured Mental Health Worker. I it’s been 20 years now a victim of a really brutal  system. Two years ago I discovered I had been a victim of false fake identity identification fraud by the Insurer. I have reports photos assessment panel reports of someone that is not me.  I was 42 when suffered my work place injury the person in the photos is in her 70s and three sizes larger. I was 42 kilos at the time, the person in the photos is 102 kilos. sadly it was my deceased mother, I received a copy of my file from a disgruntled ex manager and discovered this. I will never heal, I have further impairment due to the time frames for mental health admissions care support. I have suffered rejection denial for twenty years. Sadly I was honest and true, with never a chance to recover and receive proper honest treatment care. My abuse financially of honest true entitlements and reimbursements has been illegal and wrong. I honestly know I will be so much better when dead and not controlled by illegal scary insurance fraudsters. To be legally medically denied and  Claim Managers making medical life threatening decisions when ever they are ready truly is a evil inhumane crime. Love and Best Wishes to you. Karen x

That's extraordinary. 

Do you have legal representation?

How do you cope?

I am seeking legal representation however due to my illness I am unable to fight for myself. I have basically given up 

[white knight]

Sorry to hear that. 

Im at a loss with any further advice. You are always welcome here if there's any future updates or a chat.

I have been having the worst times of my mental illness possible. I know it’s not possible to want to continue to exist. I don’t know what to do about my illness anymore. I know I need help I. Just don’t know if I’m worth helping now. How can I recover from two decades of rejection and denial medical treatment for my mental illness injury. I can’t believe I have survived for 22 years having to get approval for mental health treatment. It’s Insane what I have been through. Insane and Ashamed of the Abuse for being Injured. 
I just think about Dads out there going to work everyday providing for the family and being injured and slaughtered under our modern day criminal system. I finally gave up no more abuse and I woke up still in hell. 
now I will try to recover again.

Dear Karen~

Welcome back to the Forum. Sad to say yur predicament is not unusual. Treatment of mental health issues caused by work is an area where deliberate delay, misunderstanding and judgments made by non medical staff all make the system a nightmare.

The first thing I"d say is you ARE worth helping and being guided int a better life,. I was invalided out of my occupation suicidal with PTSD, depression and anxiety, however for me thing have worked well. I put this down to having my own psychiatrist and GP, both of whom were very definite in my diagnosis and its cause and they were my advocates 

I could not have done that  much for my self, I was in no condition to.

tony has given you good advice, you do need an advocate to take theburden of fighting a reluctant bureaucracy, and a speialist solicitor is the most appropriate thought.  Of course this can be expensive, but if it gets you proper treatment and you improve it has to be worth it. 

It is no use comparing yourself to healthy people going to work, you can only do what you are able to do, and at this stage coping wiht your mental health is more than enough.

I was in the worst conditon possible and am now in a far better place, I would hope in time you can be too.

You will always be welcome here

hello Karen,

Firstly ... welcome.

I’m so sorry you’ve been through so much. What you’re describing sounds painful, and the fact that you’re still here and even thinking about recovery shows real strength. I want you that you are are absolutely worth helping, and you deserve care and support.

I have a few other things I would like say, but right now is perhaps not quite the right time...

Perhaps, and if you don't mind my asking as I am a little confused ... can you share a little of your story? But only if you want toi. I don't want to pressure you in any way.

Listening ...
