CompFox AI Summary
This case involves a lien claim for facility services provided by Premier Outpatient Surgery Center. The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board rescinded the prior ruling disallowing the lien, finding Premier was properly licensed as a "surgical clinic" by the Department of Health Services and thus not required to possess a fictitious-name permit from the Medical Board. The case is remanded for further proceedings to determine the reasonableness of Premier's billed amount and whether Premier rendered professional services requiring separate licensure.
