Application for accident benefits beyond the Minor Injury Guideline dismissed due to insufficient evidence.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, arguing her injuries warranted removal from the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) due to psychological impairments and chronic pain.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant sustained predominantly minor soft tissue injuries.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's insurer examination reports, finding insufficient evidence of a psychological impairment or chronic pain meeting the AMA Guides criteria.
The applicant's injuries were deemed subject to the $3,500 MIG limit, and the application for additional treatment plans was dismissed.
