Injury / body parts: gastrointestinal system, stomach

LC §4600LC §4903

Summary

Lien claimant Prescription Center sought reconsideration of a July 23, 2021 Findings and Orders in which the WCJ found that treatment costs incurred by Dr. Burstein and the Prescription Center were not reimbursable because applicant Jimmy Martinez did not sustain an industrial injury to his gastrointestinal system. The Prescription Center provided prescription medications for a denied body part and offered only its bills (Exhibit 1) and a bill review (Exhibit 2) as evidence at a lien trial. The Board held that the lien claimant, standing in the shoes of the injured worker, failed to establish industrial injury by a preponderance of the evidence and failed to show its treatment was reasonable and necessary. The WCAB denied the Petition for Reconsideration.
