The claimant sought entitlement to NEBs, ACBs, and psychological treatment. Adjudicator Gosio rejected the claims for NEBs and ACBs, and found that the psychological treatment plan was disputed more than two years after the denial. The claimant failed to lead sufficient evidence that the accident was the cause of her impairments, as she had extensive pre-accident injuries and impairments. Adjudicator Gosio also rejected the claimant’s argument that the “material contribution” test should apply. Regarding the claim for ACBs, the adjudicator again noted that the claimant was receiving personal care in relation to an earlier accident and that she failed to prove that further care was required as a result of the subject accident. The disputed psychological treatment was denied more than two years prior to the LAT application.
