The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied the claims on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant argued for removal from the MIG due to pre-existing knee and psychological conditions, as well as accident-related chronic pain and psychological impairment.
The Tribunal found insufficient medical evidence to establish that any pre-existing condition would prevent maximal medical recovery within the MIG, nor was there sufficient evidence of chronic pain with functional impairment or a psychological injury.
The application was dismissed, and the disputed treatment plans were denied.
