How can I access a clinical neuropsychological evaluation after a motor vehicle accident?
Under medical and rehabilitation benefits of current automobile insurance legislation in the province of Ontario, Canada, a victim of a motor vehicle accident is entitled to a neuropsychological examination by the neuropsychologist of his/her choice, if the clinical assessment is reasonable and necessary for rehabilitative purposes. The insurer is required to fund the clinical evaluation whether or not the insurer approves of the assessment. In other provinces and states, motor vehicle accident victims who are interested in obtaining an evaluation but are uncertain of the legislation covering their particular situation should seek the advice of a personal injury lawyer. Many lawyers will provide a free initial consultation.
