Supreme Court of Missouri
Jeannie E. Harper v. Springfield Rehab and Health Care Center/NHC Health, Premier Group Insurance Company Corvel…
November 21, 2023
Summary
The Court affirmed the Commission’s award of permanent total disability benefits and future medical care because competent and substantial evidence supported findings that Harper sustained a compensable workplace accident, was permanently and totally disabled as a result, and would reasonably require future treatment. The Court also dismissed two noncompliant appellate points but exercised discretion to review the remaining discernible points on their merits.
