Applicant v. Aviva Insurance Company (17-005081)

The claimant sought entitlement to three treatment plans, and interest on overdue payments.  The insurer brought a preliminary issue concerning whether the applicant was precluded from submitting evidence regarding the benefits in dispute; more specifically, the claimant had failed to submit two of the treatment plans to the Tribunal. Adjudicator Go determined that, it was in the interests of fairness to admit the treatment plans despite their late filing. Adjudicator Go further held that the claimant was not entitled to any of the medical benefits sought, or to interest.
