Dr. John Gillis

The applicant sought reconsideration of a Licence Appeal Tribunal decision denying entitlement to two chiropractic treatment plans.

The applicant argued the Tribunal made significant errors of fact and sought to introduce new medical evidence.

The Vice-Chair dismissed the request, finding the proposed new evidence was either reasonably available prior to the hearing or would not have impacted the outcome.

The Vice-Chair further held that the Tribunal's weighing of the medical evidence, including assigning less weight to expert reports that lacked full medical history or relied on conjecture, was open to it on the evidence and did not constitute an error of fact.
