Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought medical benefits beyond the $3,500 limit prescribed by the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued that his injuries fell outside the MIG due to psychological impairments, chronic pain, and a pre-existing condition.
The adjudicator found the applicant's medical evidence inconsistent, particularly noting the lack of psychological complaints or referrals in his family physician's clinical notes.
The adjudicator concluded that the applicant sustained predominantly minor injuries and was subject to the MIG limit.
The application for further benefits was dismissed, and neither party was awarded costs.
