Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the exhausted Minor Injury Guideline limit.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the treatment plans on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and the $3,500 limit had been exhausted.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide compelling medical evidence of a pre-existing condition or that his injuries, including alleged chronic pain syndrome, fell outside the MIG.
As the MIG limit was exhausted, the disputed treatment plans were not payable.
The application was dismissed, along with claims for interest and an award under Regulation 664.
