PATRICK SCHOLLER vs. TRINITY ALPS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, SHASTA-TRINITY SCHOOLS INSURANCE GROUP, JPA-PSI, administered by SCHOOLS INSURANCE AUTHORITY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the defendant's Petition for Removal. The Board rescinded the prior order allowing a new Qualified Medical Examiner (QME) panel due to a delay in a supplemental report. The Board sustained the defendant's objection, finding that disqualifying the original QME was not warranted. Defendant is authorized to request the replacement QME not prepare a report if an examination has already occurred.
