Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline funding limit.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied funding for chiropractic services, physiotherapy, and a psychological assessment on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and the $3,500 funding limit had been exhausted.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to dispute the partial denial of chiropractic services within the two-year limitation period.
Furthermore, the Tribunal concluded that the applicant's injuries were minor as defined by the Schedule, as there was no compelling medical evidence of psychological or non-minor injuries.
The application was dismissed.
