Prime Indicator: Medical Condition
The medical condition is always the prime indicator in determining a "severe" and "prolonged" CPP disability. There are a number of factors to consider in assessing the medical condition:
- The nature of the medical condition, and whether it is progressive;
- Functional limitations imposed by the medical condition;
- Impact of treatment(s);
- Statements/opinions expressed by medical practitioners and/or other health professionals, and by the client;
- Existence of multiple medical conditions; and
- Personal characteristics.
- The medical adjudicator must determine if the medical condition regularly prevents a particular person from working.
