The applicant sought attendant care benefits (ACBs) and interest following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent initially denied the benefits based on an occupational therapy assessment.
The adjudicator found that the applicant's medical evidence, including clinical notes from her family doctor and a pain consultant, established her entitlement to ACBs.
The adjudicator also found that the expenses were deemed incurred after August 2015 because the respondent unreasonably withheld payment.
The respondent was ordered to pay ACBs of $873.30 per month from July 16, 2015 to September 30, 2016, plus interest.
