Applicant entitled to psychological and driving assessments but denied chiropractic treatment and chronic pain assessment.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal denied the applicant's claims for chiropractic treatment plans and a chronic pain assessment, finding they were not reasonable and necessary given the lack of contemporaneous medical evidence and the applicant's high level of post-accident physical activity.
However, the Tribunal granted the applicant's claims for a driving assessment, psychological assessment, cognitive assessment, and psychological treatment, finding that the medical evidence supported an exacerbation of pre-existing psychological issues, including vehicular anxiety.
The applicant's claim for an award under s. 10 of Reg. 664 was dismissed as the insurer's conduct was not unreasonable.
