CHETAN THAKER vs. AON HEWITT CORPORATION, CNA CLAIM PLUS, INC., SEGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC., THE HARTFORD

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the petitioner's Petition for Reconsideration. The Board adopted the findings of the Workers' Compensation Judge (WCJ), who concluded that the applicant failed to prove an industrial injury arose out of and occurred in the course of employment (AOE/COE). The WCJ found that the reports of the Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME), Dr. Pretsky, constituted substantial medical evidence, despite the petitioner's disagreements regarding the diagnosis. Furthermore, the petitioner failed to provide sufficient justification for newly discovered evidence or specific arguments regarding factual or statutory errors.
