Application for accident benefits dismissed as proposed chiropractic treatment was not reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought $2,254.07 for chiropractic services following a motor vehicle accident, along with an award for unreasonable delay and interest.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove the treatment was reasonable and necessary, noting significant gaps in treatment, pre-existing degenerative conditions, and inconsistencies between reported impairments and observed functional capacities.
The Tribunal relied on the insurer's examination reports, which concluded the applicant sustained only minor soft tissue injuries.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
