Question juridique clé
Whether SUVA was entitled to close the case and stop daily benefits and treatment coverage as of 31 December 2006
Solution extraite
Yes. By the end of 2006 no further treatment was expected to improve earning capacity, so case closure was permissible.
Motifs extraits
The decisive question under Art. 19(1) UVG is whether treatment still promised a substantial improvement in work capacity. Pain and reduced grip function did not prevent closure once no effective medical measures remained foreseeable.
