David’s Four-Year Battle for Neuro Care
from Edmonton News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
David Clegg’s four-year battle with Alberta’s Workers’ Compensation Board is a nightmare of bureaucracy and broken promises. After a ladder fall left him with severe neurological damage, he’s trapped in a cruel choice: keep 90% of his wages or forfeit them to access a neurologist on a waitlist that could take years. Despite winning appeals and fixing payment errors, he’s denied care by public health facilities because he’s still on an open WCB claim — forcing him to look into private clinics. His wife bears the emotional and financial toll as the system, designed to heal, instead leaves them stranded. Experts say the WCB works for simple cases — but when things get complex, it’s a machine that grinds people down. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
