Applicant awarded caregiver benefits for 104 weeks due to partial inability to carry on normal life.
The applicant was injured in a snowmobile accident and received caregiver benefits until the insurer terminated them.
The arbitrator found that the applicant was deemed to have elected caregiver benefits.
While the applicant did not suffer a substantial inability to engage in caregiving activities after the termination date, she did suffer a partial inability to carry on a normal life due to her restricted mobility.
The arbitrator awarded caregiver benefits for the 104-week period following the accident, along with interest and expenses.
