Dr. Jacqueline Burnshaw

The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.

The respondent denied various treatment plans on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).

The Tribunal found that the respondent's notices for insurer's examinations were insufficient, so the applicant was not barred from proceeding.

However, the Tribunal concluded that the applicant failed to prove he suffered from chronic pain with functional impairment or a psychological impairment.

Therefore, the applicant's injuries remained subject to the $3,500 MIG limit, and the application for treatment plans beyond that limit was dismissed.
