Accident benefits claims dismissed due to pervasive inconsistencies and lack of applicant credibility.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits, including caregiver benefits, attendant care benefits, and the cost of a psychological assessment, following a motor vehicle accident.
The arbitrator dismissed all claims, finding the applicant lacked credibility due to pervasive inconsistencies in his evidence regarding his employment status, living arrangements, and caregiving responsibilities.
The arbitrator concluded the applicant's self-reports to assessors were unreliable, undermining the medical reports supporting his claims.
