Client is recovering alcoholic who is extremely anxious.  PCA medical was arranged which caused an increase in anxiety and loss of control over drinking.  His GP wrote to the Med Services asking for a domiciliary visit as client could simply not go out. They refused and sent a taxi for him. He had been drinking for days and couldn’t bring himself to get in the taxi to attend. Benefit now stopped

Any thoughts?
