Application for income replacement benefits dismissed; applicant failed to prove substantial inability to perform employment tasks.
The applicant was injured in a rear-end motor vehicle collision and claimed income replacement benefits for fibromyalgia and psychological impairments.
The insurer terminated benefits after June 24, 2003.
The arbitrator found that the applicant's physical complaints were not objectively verifiable and preferred the insurer's psychological assessment, which concluded she was not substantially disabled from performing the essential tasks of her employment as a computer sales representative.
The application for arbitration was dismissed.
