Applicant found catastrophically impaired under Criterion 8, but treatment plans denied for lack of evidence.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, claiming she sustained a catastrophic impairment under Criterion 8 of the Schedule.
The Tribunal found the applicant's expert evidence persuasive, concluding she suffered a Class 4 (Marked) Impairment in all four domains of function due to psychological and somatic symptom disorders.
The respondent's expert evidence was given little weight due to critical errors.
However, the Tribunal dismissed the applicant's claims for various treatment plans and assessments, finding she failed to provide sufficient evidence or identify the goals to prove they were reasonable and necessary.
