Application for statutory accident benefits dismissed as proposed treatments were not proven reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought medical and rehabilitation benefits following a 2015 motor vehicle accident, including an occupational therapy re-assessment and two physiotherapy treatment plans.
The respondent denied the benefits, arguing they were not reasonable and necessary.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to meet his burden of proving the treatments were reasonable and necessary, noting a lack of contemporaneous medical evidence supporting ongoing physiotherapy and an occupational therapy re-assessment.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
