For accidents that occurred before September 1, 2010:
Is this an impairment referred to in a Pre-approved Framework (PAF) Guideline? Yes No

If yes, please explain, in accordance with the PAF Guideline, and with express reference to the provisions of the PAF Guideline on which you rely, why this OCF-18 Treatment and Assessment Plan is being submitted instead of an OCF 23 Treatment Confirmation Form:

For accidents that occur on or after September 1, 2010:
Is this impairment predominantly a minor injury as referred to in the Minor Injury Guideline applicable to the accident? Yes No

If yes, please explain and provide compelling evidence why the applicant does not come within the Minor Injury Guideline due to a pre-existing medical condition that was documented by me or another health practitioner before the accident and that will prevent the applicant from achieving maximal recovery from the minor injury if the applicant is subject to the $3,500 limit or is limited to the goods and services authorized under the Minor Injury Guideline.

Send any attachments directly to the insurer
