Medical benefit for kinesiologist-supervised exercise program granted as reasonable and necessary.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought a medical benefit of $2,961.72 for a kinesiologist-supervised exercise program.
The respondent denied the claim, arguing the applicant had reached maximum medical recovery and could perform exercises independently.
The Tribunal found the treatment plan was reasonable and necessary, preferring the evidence of the applicant's treating practitioners that supervision was required to avoid aggravating her impairments and to support her psychological well-being.
The applicant was awarded the claimed benefit.
