MICHELLE RIDDLE vs. LAS FLORES CONVALESCENT HOSPITAL, CIGA by its servicing facility INTERCARE INSURANCE SERVICES, ULLICO CASUALTY CO.

This case involves CIGA's petition for reconsideration regarding reimbursement for nonpermanent disability benefits paid to an applicant. CIGA sought reimbursement from Travelers Insurance Company, arguing Travelers' earlier policy constituted "other insurance." The Appeals Board denied CIGA's petition, adopting the WCJ's reasoning. The Board found that Travelers had no further liability for the applicant's benefits due to a prior approved Compromise and Release agreement, thus Travelers' policy was not "other insurance" for the purpose of reimbursement.
