Applicant denied medical benefits and ordered to repay $8,583.12 in overpaid income replacement benefits.
The applicant sought medical and rehabilitation benefits, including chiropractic and physiotherapy treatment plans, following a motor vehicle accident.
The adjudicator found that the applicant failed to prove the treatment plans were reasonable and necessary, relying on the respondent's orthopaedic assessments which found no objective evidence of accident-related impairment.
The applicant's claim for a psychological assessment was also dismissed as a duplication of service.
Furthermore, the adjudicator ordered the applicant to repay $8,583.12 in income replacement benefits that were overpaid due to an insurer error, as the applicant failed to establish any exception to the repayment obligation under section 52 of the Schedule.
Claims for a section 10 award and costs were dismissed.
