Application for $21,800 in catastrophic impairment assessments dismissed for lack of causation and medical necessity.
The applicant sought $21,800 for a series of assessments to determine catastrophic impairment following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the treatment plan.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove the proposed psychiatric, occupational therapy, orthopaedic, neurological, and functional abilities assessments were reasonable and necessary.
The medical evidence did not establish that the applicant's pain, mental health conditions, or functional limitations were caused by the accident or warranted the requested assessments.
The application for benefits and a claim for an award were dismissed.
