Occupational therapy benefits denied as applicant failed to prove they were reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits for occupational therapy services and devices following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits on the basis that the treatment plans were not reasonable and necessary.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove the treatment plans were reasonable and necessary, preferring the evidence of the respondent's occupational therapist whose findings were consistent with other assessors.
The Tribunal also found the respondent's denials were valid and dismissed the claims for interest and an award for unreasonable delay.
