There are two questions here. As for the first, I can file a lawsuit against anyone in New York. As to the second, in order to prove a medical malpractice case, a claimant must prove a failure to conform to accepted practice, resulting in an injury. A bad result is not enough. He will need to get copies of ALL of his medical records and have a doctor review them; if the reviewing physician is willing to testify that the previous doctor failed to conform to accepted practice, then he has a case. But even then, he will have to prove how much worse he is as a result of the malpractice. There are many people whose health deteriorates from the point where they can live independently to the point where they require assisted living, whose situation has nothing to do with lithium toxicity. So, your expert witness would have to say that "but for" the malpractice, his condition would not have deteriorated. These cases are difficult and expensive to prove and they do not settle out of court.

It is irrelevant whether a motor vehicle crash was your fault as it relates to the receipt of Michigan No Fault Benefits. You are entitled to have your motor vehicle insurer pay for wage loss, crash related medical treatment/testing and replacement services without regard to fault. Typically you don't have to sue your insurer, you simply file an Application for Benefits and provide proof of any wage loss, medical bills or folks doing doctor required chores for you. If your insurer won't honor the claim, you may need to sue them. Fault only plays a part in whether you may have a tort claim against any negligent owner/driver that caused the crash/your injuries.

Yes, it is a valid claim. For how much depends on how badly you are hurt (all of the details about the boss's attitude are irrelevant. The only issue is how badly you are hurt).
