Application for catastrophic impairment designation dismissed; applicant failed to establish marked impairment in three spheres.
The applicant sought a determination that he sustained a catastrophic impairment under Criterion 8 of the Schedule following a 2017 motor vehicle accident.
The Tribunal found that while the applicant suffered from accident-related mental and behavioural disorders, he did not sustain a marked impairment in the spheres of activities of daily living or social functioning.
The Tribunal preferred the evidence of the respondent's assessors, noting the applicant maintained independence in personal care and continued to have meaningful social interactions with family and friends.
The claims for unapproved balances of assessment plans, interest, and an award were also dismissed.
