The applicant, who has autism, was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought various medical and rehabilitation benefits, primarily for chiropractic services, as well as interest and an award under Regulation 664.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the claims, finding that the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that her ongoing neck, shoulder, and back pain were caused by the accident.
Relying on insurer examination reports, the adjudicator concluded that the requested treatments were neither reasonable nor necessary, and consequently denied the claims for interest and a special award.
