In certain cases, yes it can be idiotic. When I lived in BC, I was rear ended and it caused me to have back pain that did require physio. In spite of having a legitimate injury backed up by reports from my physiotherapist and doctor, because my accident did not meet the requirements, I was denied my injury claim (the physio was covered, except for a $15 fee per appointment). However, I do agree with the program because it ultimately prevents people from defrauding the insurance system.
