The appellant sought out-of-country funding for surgery to repair a medical condition, arguing that a delay in Ontario would cause irreversible tissue damage.
The Health Services Appeal and Review Board denied the request, and the appellant appealed to the Divisional Court.
The appellant argued the Board lost jurisdiction by reconstituting the hearing panel and ignored medical evidence regarding tissue damage.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding no procedural unfairness in the panel reconstitution and concluding the Board's decision on the medical evidence was reasonable.
