The claimant disputed his MIG determination, as well as entitlement to attendant care benefits in the amount of $138.09 per month and various medical benefits. Adjudicator Boyce found the claimant to be unsuccessful on all of the disputed issues. The claimant’s argument for removal from the MIG centred around his psychological impairments, relying on a psychological pre-screen interview report. Adjudicator Boyce did not find the pre-screen report compelling because it included no preliminary diagnosis or suggestion that the claimant met DSM-V criteria. Further, the claimant’s family doctor records made no reference to accident-related psychological complaints. As the claimant’s injuries fell within the MIG, he was not entitled to attendant care benefits or the disputed non-MIG treatment plans.
