Application for accident benefits dismissed; proposed treatments not reasonable and necessary due to pre-existing conditions.
The applicant sought medical and rehabilitation benefits for physiotherapy and psychological treatment following a 2015 motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the claims, and the applicant applied to the Licence Appeal Tribunal.
The Tribunal found that the applicant had significant pre-existing physical and psychological conditions, and the medical evidence did not establish that the proposed treatments were reasonable and necessary as a result of the accident.
The Tribunal also dismissed the applicant's claim for an award under Regulation 664, finding no evidence that the respondent's conduct was excessive or imprudent.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
