Application for accident benefits largely dismissed; only travel costs for massage therapy awarded.
The applicant sought entitlement to various statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, including multiple treatment plans for physiotherapy, psychological, optometric, and chiropractic services, as well as attendant care benefits.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to meet her burden of proving that the majority of the disputed treatment plans were reasonable and necessary.
The Tribunal granted entitlement only to 16 instances of travel costs for a massage therapist, noting the applicant's inability to attend in-facility treatment at the time.
The claims for attendant care benefits and other treatment plans were dismissed.
The applicant was awarded interest on the overdue travel costs.
