Applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline; limited income replacement benefits and one psychological assessment awarded.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought statutory accident benefits.
The insurer denied certain benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The Tribunal found that the applicant sustained predominantly minor injuries and was not removed from the MIG due to a pre-existing psychological condition or post-accident psychological injuries.
The Tribunal awarded income replacement benefits for a limited period when the applicant was substantially unable to perform the essential tasks of his employment.
The Tribunal also approved one psychological assessment as reasonable and necessary, but denied other treatment plans.
