Non-Earner Benefit denied as applicant continued caregiving duties; some medical benefits approved.
The applicant sought a Non-Earner Benefit (NEB) and various medical benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The Tribunal found that while the applicant's life was affected by the accident, she did not suffer a 'complete inability to carry on a normal life' as she continued to engage in substantially all of her pre-accident caregiving activities, albeit with some restrictions and assistance.
The Tribunal approved two physiotherapy treatment plans and an orthopaedic assessment as reasonable and necessary, but denied a third physiotherapy plan, a psychotherapy plan, and a claim for a special award.
Interest was awarded on the approved incurred expenses.
