The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board affirmed the original decision, ruling that the 2005 Permanent Disability Rating Schedule (PDRS) applies to the applicant's case. The Board found that neither a pre-2005 medical report by Dr. Silver indicating permanent disability nor a specific notice exception under Labor Code section 4660(d) were met. Consequently, the applicant's permanent disability was correctly rated using the 2005 PDRS.
