Wawatai-Lynch v Accident Compensation Corporation (Entitlements)
- Citation
- [2019] NZACC 14
- Court
- District Court
On the totality of the medical evidence, including CAP and treating specialists, the appellant failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that her current condition and need for further osteopath treatment were caused by the 12 May 2012 accident rather than being wholly or substantially the result of pre-existing age-related degenerative change; accordingly ACC's decision to decline further funding was correct and the review decision was upheld.
