Application for accident benefits dismissed; applicant failed to prove injuries warranted removal from Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued for removal from the MIG based on a pre-existing condition from a prior accident, concussion, chronic pain, and psychological impairment.
The Tribunal found the applicant failed to provide sufficient medical evidence to support removal from the MIG on any of these grounds.
The medical reports relied upon by the applicant were primarily related to a previous accident and did not establish that the subject accident caused or exacerbated conditions precluding recovery within the MIG.
The application for disputed treatment plans, interest, and an award was dismissed.
