Application for accident benefits dismissed; applicant failed to establish injuries warranted removal from the Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant sought accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, claiming removal from the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) due to physical injuries, a psychological impairment, and chronic pain.
The adjudicator found insufficient evidence to support removal from the MIG, preferring the respondent's psychological assessment over the applicant's because it was based on clinical testing and medical records rather than solely self-reported data.
The applicant also failed to establish a functional impairment from chronic pain.
The application for a psychological assessment, interest, and a section 10 award was dismissed.
