The applicant sought non-earner benefits, interest, and an award under the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule following a motor vehicle accident.

The respondent denied benefits, arguing the applicant's impairments stemmed from a pre-existing condition.

The Tribunal found that the applicant sustained serious psychological and physical impairments as a result of the accident, which continuously prevented her from engaging in substantially all of her pre-accident activities.

The Tribunal ordered the respondent to pay non-earner benefits for the eligible 104-week period and interest, but denied the claim for an award as the respondent's reliance on its assessments was not unreasonable.
