The webinar, which can be accessed from any computer, runs from 9 – 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, April 29. It is co-sponsored by Oatley Vigmond Personal Injury Lawyers.

The event will feature a panel discussion with representatives from the insurance industry and related sectors.

These revisions made changes to the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule impacting laws relating to the MIG and attendant care services.

There will also be a discussion about how the recent amendments are affecting insurance companies and clients, strategies to deal with economic loss and incurred expenses, and how to determine what’s payable in SABS, with a review of Rule 53.03 followed by a live Q & A segment.
