Tribunal denies most of disputed catastrophic impairment assessment costs as duplicitous or exceeding statutory caps.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought approval for a multi-disciplinary catastrophic impairment assessment totaling $22,416.69.
The respondent partially approved the treatment plan for $7,006.00.
The applicant applied to the Licence Appeal Tribunal for the unapproved balance of $15,410.69.
The adjudicator found that most of the disputed assessments were either duplicitous, ancillary to the psychological assessment, or exceeded the $2,000 statutory cap per assessment under s. 25(5)(a) of the Schedule.
The applicant was awarded $2,000 for the CAT Rating/Executive Summary and $200 for the OCF-19 completion fee, plus interest, with the remainder of the claim dismissed.
