Hector Barragan vs. Stanford Healthcare, Safety National Casualty, Tristar Insurance Group

This Workers' Compensation Appeals Board case involved an applicant seeking reconsideration of a prior order that deemed an EAMS document discoverable. The Board admitted the document into evidence as Exhibit XX but reversed the prior ruling on discoverability. The Board found the document not relevant to the applicant's alleged foot and ankle injuries, nor was there a waiver of privacy. Consequently, the defendant is prohibited from producing the document without WCAB authorization.
