- Insurer: Eastern Casualty Insurance Co.
MCCARTHY, J. The insurer appeals from an administrative judge’s decision awarding the employee weekly incapacity benefits for an emotional injury under G. L. c. 152, § 1(7A).1 The employee appeals the judge’s modification of weekly incapacity benefits from total to partial as of the date of the impartial psychiatric examination. Because we agree with the insurer that the exclusive medical evidence of the § 11A impartial psychiatrist does not support the award of benefits, for the reasons that follow, we reverse the decision, and summarily dismiss the employee’s appeal.
