You should probably talk to your doctor about this.When making an application to PIAB each Claimant must submit a medical report with their application. This report is normally completed by one of the Claimant’s treating practitioners.
That seems to be part of the processThanks. It was PIAB who requested me to see the Ortho man and Psychiatrist .
I'm not sure about that. Seems to me that you/your doctor will eventually submit the medical report that summarises your medical evidence as mentioned in my previous postI expect they’re questioning my own GP, Physio etc ?
I don't think that anybody, other than the PIAB by way of their ultimate decision/running, can really clarify on this. Presumably they take account of all medical evidence and other info/factors in arriving at a decision and, possibly, compensation award?I’m also conscious of this very personal information being shared with PIAB and possibly in court and how it will
affect the outcome of the assessment . Knowing that the medical findings will be taken into account by PIAB when examining the claim, does the Psychiatrists report also have a bearing ?
As it was the PIAB who requested you see them both, it is most likely they will review both reports. It's not a question of doubting your GP, both the psychiatrist and the orthopaedic surgeon have areas of speciality that your GP won't have and will be able to advise on treatment options (including costs) and long term prognosis.Thanks. It was PIAB who requested me to see the Ortho man and Psychiatrist . I expect they’re questioning my own GP, Physio etc ?
Isn't court only an issue if either party doesn't accept the PIAB ruling and escalates matters or the respondent doesn't pay up?Thank you for your sensitive reply. I’m just so private and this is the last thing I want. If it went to court and I was cross examined on the psychological
Impact of things, I’m not sure I could cope tbh.
