The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied a treatment plan for a Functional Abilities Evaluation on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) and the $3,500 funding limit had been exhausted.
The Tribunal found that the applicant's injuries were predominantly minor soft tissue injuries and that he failed to provide compelling evidence that pre-existing conditions prevented his maximal recovery within the MIG.
As the MIG limit was exhausted, the disputed benefits and interest were denied, and the application was dismissed.
