Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline limit.
The applicant sought medical benefits for physiotherapy, an orthopedic assessment, and a psychological assessment following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and the funding limit had been exhausted.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to prove her injuries, including headaches, chronic pain, and psychological issues, warranted removal from the MIG.
The Tribunal also found insufficient evidence that pre-existing conditions prevented her from achieving maximal recovery within the MIG limit.
The application was dismissed.
