DOLORES ENRIQUEZ vs. U.S. HEALTHWORKS, INC. and SAFETY NATIONAL CASUALTY CORPORATION, administered by ESIS, INC.

This case involves a defendant's petition for reconsideration of a Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) decision. The WCAB denied the petition, upholding the administrative law judge's findings that the applicant sustained injuries to her spine and extremities. The defendant challenged the substantiality of medical evidence regarding apportionment and the WCAB's consideration of temporary disability benefits. The WCAB found that the treating and QME physician reports constituted substantial evidence for apportionment, and that the applicant was not entitled to further temporary disability payments.
