AI generated

The Administrative Court dismissed the claim for financial compensation for pool therapy under the Disability Services Act. The applicant argued that the therapy constituted a valid economic support measure, while the state contended it was a medical rehabilitation activity. The court ruled that because pool therapy is classified as medical rehabilitation, it falls outside the scope of compensable economic support defined in the relevant statutes.
