Claim for assistive devices granted as reasonable and necessary; claim for chiropractic services denied.
The applicant sought medical and rehabilitation benefits under the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule following a motor vehicle accident.
The adjudicator found the applicant was entitled to $1,070 for assistive devices, as they were reasonable and necessary to treat accident-related pain, despite the applicant's concurrent pregnancy.
Claims for a cast and crutches were dismissed as abandoned, and a claim for chiropractic services was dismissed because the applicant had several unexhausted approved treatment plans for similar physical therapies.
Interest was awarded on the overdue payment for the assistive devices.
