Application for accident benefits dismissed; applicant failed to prove injuries fell outside the Minor Injury Guideline.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the treatment plans on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued that chronic pain and psychological injuries removed him from the MIG.
The Tribunal found insufficient evidence of functionally disabling chronic pain or a psychological impairment, noting the lack of corroborating medical records.
As the applicant's injuries were predominantly minor and the MIG limits were exhausted, the application for disputed benefits and interest was dismissed.
