Physiotherapy treatment plans approved for chronic pain; remaining claims for assessments and expenses dismissed.
The applicant sought entitlement to statutory accident benefits for medical treatment, assessments, and other expenses following a motor vehicle accident.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant's proposed physiotherapy treatment plans were reasonable and necessary to address his chronic pain, preferring the evidence of his chronic pain specialist over the insurer's assessor.
However, the Tribunal dismissed the claims for additional psychological services, an orthopedic assessment, a duplicate chronic pain assessment, an accounting report, and prescription expenses, finding the applicant failed to meet his evidentiary burden for those items.
