Application for medical benefits dismissed as the treatment plan was not supported by medical evidence.
The applicant was injured in a rear-end motor vehicle accident and sought a medical benefit of $3,581.53 for chiropractic, physiotherapy, and massage services.
The respondent denied the treatment plan on the basis that it was not reasonable and necessary, relying on an insurer's examination report.
The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the applicant's own medical expert report did not recommend the specific services claimed and contained inconsistent statements.
As the treatment plan was not reasonable and necessary, no interest was payable.
