Application for statutory accident benefits dismissed as proposed treatments and assessments were not reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought various statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, including treatment plans for chiropractic services, psychotherapy, a neurological assessment, a chronic pain assessment, and physiotherapy.
The respondent denied the benefits.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that any of the disputed treatment plans or assessments were reasonable and necessary.
The medical evidence, including independent medical evaluations and the applicant's own expert reports, largely recommended home-based exercises and did not support the need for the proposed facility-based treatments or specialized assessments.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
