Application for accident benefits dismissed as chiropractic treatment plans were not proven reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits for two chiropractic treatment plans following a rear-end motor vehicle accident.
The insurer denied the plans.
At the Licence Appeal Tribunal, the adjudicator found that the applicant failed to prove the treatments were reasonable and necessary.
The medical evidence, including clinical notes and records, did not support an ongoing physical impairment requiring the proposed treatment.
The adjudicator accepted the insurer's orthopaedic assessment that the applicant's soft tissue injuries had resolved.
The application was dismissed.
