The claimant sought a determination that his impairments were outside of the MIG and entitlement to benefits proposed in two treatment plans. Adjudicator Punyarthi found that the claimant’s injuries fell within the MIG and that the treatment plans in dispute were not payable as the MIG limits had been exhausted. Adjudicator Punyarthi decided not to consider the issue of the timing of the insurer’s denial letters as this issue was raised for the first time in the claimant’s reply submissions, and the respondent did not have an opportunity to reply to the submissions.
