199. When a person who is a victim chooses, without prior authorization from the Minister, to receive care or undergo medical examinations more than 100 km from their place of residence when such care or examinations could be obtained within a shorter distance, only the expenses corresponding to a trip of 200 km with an authorized personal vehicle in the case provided for in section 197 or with an unauthorized personal vehicle in every other case may be reimbursed.
Such authorization may be granted where those expenses are more economical taking into account all the amounts of financial assistance to which the person who is a victim would be entitled if they received care or underwent a medical examination 100 km or less from their place of residence.
