R.A. v. The Guarantee Company of North America (17-006363)

The claimant sought removal from the MIG and entitlement to two treatment plans for physical therapy. Adjudicator Ferguson held that the claimant’s injuries fell within the MIG. He held that the claimant’s lower back pain was not caused by the accident, but rather after lifting something heavy. He also noted that the claimant did not report any lower back pain for the first six months of 2016 (the accident was in November 2015).
