Application for non-earner benefits and treatment plans dismissed for lack of supporting medical evidence.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, including a non-earner benefit, various treatment plans for chiropractic and psychological services, an award, and interest.
The adjudicator found that the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that she suffered a complete inability to carry on a normal life, noting that her treating family doctor and psychiatrist's records did not support her claims of physical or psychological impairment resulting from the accident.
The adjudicator preferred the respondent's section 44 examination reports, which concluded the applicant suffered no ongoing accident-related impairments.
Consequently, the claims for the non-earner benefit and the treatment plans were dismissed, along with the claims for an award and interest.
