Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant sought non-earner benefits, medical and rehabilitation benefits, and attendant care benefits 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 she did not meet the test for non-earner benefits.
The Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide compelling evidence to prove she suffered a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
Furthermore, the Tribunal concluded that the applicant's injuries were minor and she had exhausted the MIG limit, disentitling her to the claimed medical and attendant care benefits.
The application was dismissed.
