Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the insured person had entitlement to an IV helplessness allowance at severe grade before retirement age
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The evidence did not establish severe helplessness before retirement; help with putting on compression stockings alone did not suffice.
Extrahierte Begründung
Severe helplessness requires regular substantial assistance in all daily activities plus permanent care or supervision. Assistance with stockings only concerns dressing and cannot by itself meet that threshold.
