The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of a WCJ's order awarding a lien claimant $5,500. The lien claimant argued this was insufficient given the $7,777.54 sought based on the Official Medical Fee Schedule. The WCJ's report indicated the parties may have resolved the underlying lien claim, recommending the prior order be vacated. Consequently, the Board rescinded the $5,500 award and returned the case to the trial level for further proceedings to determine if the lien had indeed been resolved.
