Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued for removal from the MIG based on chronic pain and psychological impairments.
The Tribunal found insufficient medical evidence to support chronic pain with functional impairment, noting the applicant's failure to produce requested medical and employment records.
The Tribunal also preferred the respondent's psychological assessment, finding the applicant did not suffer a psychological condition warranting removal from the MIG.
The application for disputed treatment plans and interest was dismissed.
