Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline cap.
The applicant sought payment for two physiotherapy treatment plans following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the plans on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and were subject to the $3,500 cap.
The applicant argued she suffered chronic pain and psychological damage taking her outside the MIG.
The Tribunal found the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that her injuries were more than predominantly minor, preferring the objective clinical notes of her family physician over her chiropractor's records.
The application for benefits was dismissed.
