Applicant awarded income replacement and medical benefits after Tribunal finds adequate compliance with information requests.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied income replacement benefits (IRB) and various medical and rehabilitation benefits, arguing the applicant failed to comply with requests for information under s. 33 of the Schedule.
The Tribunal found the applicant adequately complied with the s. 33 requests and was procedurally entitled to the IRB.
The Tribunal also found that a proposed mattress and chiropractic treatment were reasonable and necessary, preferring the evidence of the applicant's treating practitioners over the respondent's assessors.
The applicant was awarded the disputed benefits with interest.
