Application for accident benefits dismissed as treatment plans and expenses were not proven reasonable and necessary.
The applicant sought entitlement to various medical and rehabilitation benefits, including assistive devices, chiropractic treatment, physiotherapy, Botox treatment, a diagnostic nuclear imaging assessment, and pilates expenses, following a motor vehicle accident.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that the disputed treatment plans and expenses were reasonable and necessary.
The Tribunal preferred the evidence of the respondent's assessors, who opined that the applicant did not require assistive devices, had reached maximum medical recovery, and did not require further facility-based treatment.
