Accident benefits claim dismissed; applicant failed to prove injuries warranted removal from 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 Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide sufficient medical evidence to establish that her physical, chronic pain, or psychological impairments warranted removal from the MIG.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's psychological assessment over the applicant's pre-screening report.
The applicant's claims for medical benefits beyond the MIG limit and for a special award were dismissed.
