Is a graduated return to work program developed by health care professionals as part of a rehabilitation plan a treatment?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from C.R. v. Saskatchewan Government Insurance, 2006 SKAIA 76 (CanLII):

We believe that the principle set out in Deibert v. Giddings should be given a reasonable and practical application. In this respect, we agree with the Appellant that a graduated return to work program developed by health care professionals as part of a rehabilitation plan is “treatment” for purposes of the Deibert principle.
