CompFox AI Summary
Defendant sought reconsideration of a Findings of Fact, Awards and Orders (F&O) issued on February 5, 2025, which found that the applicant, Marisa Kelly, sustained a work-related psychiatric injury. The defendant contended that the medical evidence supporting this finding, specifically from the Panel Qualified Medical Examiner (PQME), was not substantial. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board, after reviewing the petition and the WCJ's report, determined that the PQME's reasoning clearly supported the causation of the applicant's temporary disability and need for medical treatment. The Board concluded that the PQME's use of 'exacerbation' instead of 'aggravation' was immaterial, and therefore, the petition for reconsideration was denied.
