CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to award a lien claimant reimbursement for psychological treatment services. The Board found that the primary treating physician did refer the applicant to the lien claimant, received and reviewed the lien claimant's reports, and thus complied with reporting requirements. This reversed the trial judge's denial of the lien based on the primary physician's alleged failure to incorporate the secondary physician's reports. The matter was returned for determination of the amount owed.
