That WorkSafe BC obtain the written opinion of the worker’s family physician and any treating specialist physician prior to making decisions involving mental illness, regardless of whether the mental illness has been accepted as compensable. 3. When video surveillance is obtained, WorkSafe BC should request a written opinion from the worker’s general practitioner or specialist regarding the relevance of that evidence prior to any decision being made based on that evidence. 4. That WorkSafe BC considers having a single employee manage each file and be responsible for any and all communication with the worker to ensure consistency in messaging as it pertains to the workers claim status and any decisions about entitlement. This will ensure a single point of contact for the worker. A different case worker can be requested by the worker. 5.

VERDICT AT CORONER’S INQUEST
FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AS A RESULT OF THE INQUEST 8. That WorkSafe BC ensure timely implementation of all of the recommendations outlined in the Case Review into the death of Mr. KANG that was completed by Dr. Graham, Dr. Meloche and Mr. Hopkins in April 2006. Also, that WorkSafe BC’s compliance with the recommendations be reviewed annually by an independent party and the results be published in WorkSafe BC’s annual report. 9. That WorkSafe BC consider transporting “inter-jurisdictional claimants” to British Columbia at the earliest possible opportunity for a complete “physical and mental” examination/assessment such that appropriate treatment can be initiated in a timely manner. Alternatively, a qualified team representing WorkSafe BC can be dispatched to those jurisdictions to attend the worker at the earliest opportunity. 10. Where a claim is rejected based on section 57(2)(b) of the Workers Compensation Act, WorkSafe BC consider obtaining an independent expert opinion to examine the worker’s refusal to engage in the recommended treatment in order to determine if it is willful. The expert must be acceptable to the worker prior to the examination. 11. That WorkSafe BC consider establishing a process to monitor the claims of fragile and high risk worker’s while they are in the appellate process. 12. That WorkSafe BC develops a practice directive that mandates active clinical monitoring and management of high risk mentally ill worker’s by a staff psychologist to ensure early intervention and appropriate ongoing care. 13. That WorkSafe BC letters to worker’s containing instructions about benefits be written in plain, non- confrontational, language with special consideration given to the sensitivities of worker’s with identified mental health issues. 14. That WorkSafe BC letters to worker’s containing instructions about benefits include and highlight the workers opportunity to seek the advice of advocates, social workers and worker’s advisory services regarding their claims. 15. Where mental illness is identified, consultation with a worker’s GP or specialist should take place prior to initiation of WorkSafe BC surveillance for assessment of effects on a client’s mental health. 16. Where a claim is rejected based on Section 57 (2)(b) of the Workers Compensation Act, that WorkSafe BC consider making available appellant benefits on request of the worker; and provide notice of all available appeal benefits to all worker’s whose claims are rejected or suspended.
