CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board rescinded an Amended Findings of Fact and Order because essential documentation regarding the timeliness of medical-legal billings and reviews was missing. Specifically, the record lacked proof of service for the provider's invoice, the defendant's initial Explanation of Review (EOR), and the subsequent second bill review. This prevented determination of whether the defendant timely objected to the bill and whether the provider timely requested a second review, necessitating further proceedings at the trial level.
