Application for accident benefits dismissed as the applicant's injuries remained 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 sought removal from the MIG, claiming she suffered from chronic pain with a functional impairment and a psychological condition.
The Tribunal found the applicant did not meet her burden of proof.
The chiropractor's diagnosis of chronic pain was rejected as it was outside their scope of practice, and the psychological report lacked psychometric testing to substantiate its provisional diagnosis.
The application was dismissed, and the claims for a chiropractic treatment plan and interest were denied.
