The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought accident benefits, which the respondent insurer denied on the basis that the injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued for removal from the MIG due to the exacerbation of pre-existing physical and psychological conditions from a prior accident.
The Tribunal found insufficient compelling medical evidence to establish that the pre-existing conditions would prevent maximal recovery within the MIG limits.
Consequently, the applicant was not removed from the MIG, and the claims for treatment plans, an award for unreasonable delay, and interest were dismissed.
