The respondent insurer requested a reconsideration of a Tribunal decision which held that the insurer must fund a catastrophic impairment assessment in addition to the $50,000 limit for medical and rehabilitation benefits.
The insurer argued that the Adjudicator made a significant error of law in interpreting sections 18 and 25 of the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule.
The Vice-Chair dismissed the request for reconsideration, finding no significant error of law and agreeing that catastrophic impairment assessments are not included in the $50,000 medical benefit limit.
