Bituah Leumi has approved new rulings on disability recognition cases, affecting the amount and conditions of payments. Attorney Yair Treibish, specializing in medical rights, published a series of decisions. He emphasized that psychiatric disability is 'silent,' invisible, and the differences between degrees and categories (occupational vs. general) are extremely significant. Treibish convinced the psychiatric committee that the client had not returned to full employment one year after the accident, so the condition was deemed to have worsened. A 20% psychiatric disability was established for one year, granting the right to a monthly pension.
