The applicant sought medical benefits for chiropractic services and a psychological assessment following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) limit of $3,500.
The Tribunal found that the applicant's physical injuries were predominantly soft tissue in nature and that she failed to provide compelling evidence of chronic pain, psychological impairment, or pre-existing conditions that would warrant removal from the MIG.
As the proposed treatment plans exceeded the MIG limit, the application for benefits was dismissed.
