Application for statutory accident benefits dismissed; applicant failed to meet employment threshold for income replacement benefits.
The Applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, claiming entitlement to income replacement benefits (IRBs), various medical benefits for treatment and assessment plans, an award, and interest.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application.
The adjudicator found that the Applicant failed to meet the minimum employment threshold to qualify for IRBs, as there was insufficient evidence she was employed at the time of the accident or for 26 of the 52 weeks preceding it.
Furthermore, the disputed treatment and assessment plans were deemed not reasonable and necessary, as they were unsupported by compelling medical evidence.
Claims for an award and interest were also dismissed.
