CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board reconsidered a prior order that barred recovery for certain lien claimants, including Physician Funding Solutions, based on Labor Code section 4903.8. The lien claimants argued that assignments predating the statute's January 1, 2013 effective date should be exempt. The Board agreed, rescinding the prior order. The case is returned for further proceedings to determine if the assignments were indeed completed before January 1, 2013, which would exempt them from the statute's bar.
