Recently, we were contacted by a client after he was involved in a work accident due to unusual mental stress. The client contacted us before contacting the National Insurance Institute for the exercise of his rights independently. The National Insurance Institute recognized the incident as a work accident and the client was subsequently summoned to a medical committee to determine his disability as a result of the accident. A Class A medical committee determined that as a result of the accident the client remained permanently disabled at the rate of 20%, but since the client had a previous mental state the committee deducted 15% so that as a result of the accident the client was prescribed only 5% disability, which does not provide any compensation from the National Insurance Institute. After our office reviewed the medical material, it was recommended that the client file an appeal against this erroneous decision. The appeals committee accepted our claims and set a disability rate of 20% permanently and deducted 5% for a prior medical condition. It also activated Regulation 15 in full due to a decline in client income after a Class A committee failed to do so. So the customer's medical disability was raised from 5% to 19%. As a result, the client received compensation of NIS 200,000 from National Insurance.
