CompFox AI Summary

Lien claimants Frontline Medical Associates and Firstline Health sought reconsideration after their medical treatment liens for Maude Tate's 2006 industrial injuries were dismissed with prejudice. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied their petition, affirming the WCJ's decision that the lien claimants failed to meet their initial burden of proof. Specifically, they presented no evidence to substantiate their claims for medical treatment provided outside the defendant's Medical Provider Network. The Board found that the lien claimants waived the right to further hearing by submitting the matter on the existing record without any supporting documentation.
