Claims for income replacement, housekeeping, and gym membership dismissed; applicant ordered to repay overpaid benefits.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought income replacement benefits, housekeeping expenses, and the cost of a gym membership.
The arbitrator found that the medical evidence did not support a substantial inability to perform the essential tasks of his employment during the claimed period.
The claims for housekeeping and the gym membership were also dismissed due to lack of credible evidence and medical necessity.
The applicant was ordered to repay the insurer for an overpayment of benefits received while he was also receiving long-term disability benefits.
