Clancy-Buchanan v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2014] NZACC 37
- Court
- District Court
The VIMA by Dr Turner was thorough, consistent with prior assessors and the GP, properly addressed pain and medication and found the appellant fit for sedentary/light roles up to 35 hours; later reports did not demonstrate flaws in the 2009 assessment or material change undermining that conclusion; therefore the decision of 26 May 2009 finding vocational independence in nine work types is upheld.
