Abstract

The author discusses the difficulties associated with the evaluation of a "genuine" Workman's Compensation claim as it relates to sorting through the issues of factitious disorders, malingering, and the multiple contributions associated with secondary gain phenomenon. A case example is utilized to assist the reader in gaining an understanding of the subtle issues that arise in the context of the Workman's Compensation setting.
