The appellant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought a determination of whether she could recover no-fault medical and rehabilitation benefits beyond the 10-year benefit period under the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule, provided the need for such expenses was established with certainty within the 10-year period.
The Court of Appeal held that the plain meaning of section 6(1) of the SABS requires that the expenses result within the benefit period.
Therefore, expenses for treatments and services provided beyond the 10-year anniversary of the accident are not recoverable.
The appeal was dismissed.
