Claims for psychological treatment plans dismissed for lack of supporting medical evidence.
The applicant sought payment for two psychological treatment plans following a 2017 motor vehicle accident.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove the treatment plans were reasonable and necessary.
The Tribunal preferred the diagnosis of the insurer's examining psychologist over the applicant's doctor, noting the latter provided no analysis to support a PTSD diagnosis.
As the applicant had already received some psychological treatment and provided no further medical evidence beyond a new treatment plan, the claims were dismissed.
Claims for interest and an award for unreasonable delay were also dismissed.
