CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a lien claimant, 4600 Group, seeking access to medical reports to prove its lien for services provided to applicant Susie Wood. The Workers' Compensation Judge previously denied the claimant's petition to compel service, ruling that the lien claimant was not a physician under Labor Code section 4903.6. The Appeals Board denied the lien claimant's subsequent Petition for Removal. The Board found that a stipulation from the defendant only disputed the costs of services, not liability, making the medical reports irrelevant to the unresolved issue of reimbursement amount. Therefore, access to the reports was deemed unnecessary, and the petition was denied.
