Application for accident benefits dismissed; one claim statute-barred and remaining treatments not proven reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought medical and rehabilitation benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the treatment plans and an expense claim form.
The Tribunal found that one of the treatment plans was statute-barred as the applicant failed to apply within the two-year limitation period under s. 56 of the Schedule.
For the remaining plans, the Tribunal held that the applicant failed to prove the treatments were reasonable and necessary as a result of the accident, noting the lack of evidence connecting the physical therapy to his psychological complaints and the impact of an intervening slip and fall injury.
The application was dismissed.
