Application for accident benefits dismissed; injuries found to be predominantly minor and subject to MIG.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, claiming chronic pain and psychological impairments warranted removal from the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The Tribunal found the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that his injuries fell outside the MIG.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's insurer's examinations over the applicant's assessments, noting a lack of contemporaneous medical evidence supporting chronic pain or psychological impairment.
The application for disputed treatment plans, interest, and an award was dismissed.
