Application for accident benefits dismissed as applicant failed to attend a reasonably necessary insurer's examination.
The applicant, a minor, sought accident benefits following a 2022 motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied several treatment plans and requested an insurer's examination (IE) with a pediatric neurologist after receiving a report linking the applicant's symptoms to the accident.
The applicant failed to attend the scheduled IE, citing travel to India, and did not provide a reasonable explanation or cooperate in rescheduling.
The Tribunal found the IE request was reasonably necessary and timely.
Consequently, the applicant was barred from proceeding with the application under section 55(1)2 of the Schedule, and the application was dismissed.
