Injury / body parts: cervical spine, lumbar spine, sleep, psyche, hips (bilateral, disputed)

LC §5902

Summary

Applicant Jerred Deutra, a bill collector, sustained a specific injury on 03-30-2008 when he fell on concrete steps. The parties stipulated that the cervical, lumbar, sleep, and psyche injuries were admitted, while bilateral hip injuries were disputed. The orthopedic AME, Dr. Peter Newton, concluded the hip labral tears were degenerative and age-related rather than industrial, based largely on the absence of any medical records mentioning hip complaints in the years immediately following the 2008 injury. The WCJ found the hips were not AOE/COE and denied applicant's requests to develop the record (to review MRI with contrast or to obtain a Medicare review). The WCAB adopted and incorporated the WCJ's Report and Recommendation, denying applicant's Petition for Reconsideration.
