Application for physiotherapy benefits dismissed due to lack of medical evidence and failure to establish causation.
The applicant sought medical benefits for two physiotherapy treatment plans following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits on the basis that they were not reasonable and necessary.
The Tribunal found that the first treatment plan was duplicative and the proposing clinic no longer existed.
For the second treatment plan, the Tribunal found a lack of medical evidence supporting the need for treatment and that the applicant failed to establish causation, noting a more serious prior accident.
The application was dismissed and no interest was payable.
