LERHONE WILLIAMS vs. CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES, IN-HOME SUPPORTIVE SERVICES; Permissibly Self-insured, Administered By YORK RISK SERVICES GROUP, INC.
This case involves Lerhone Williams, who filed a Petition for Reconsideration against the California Department of Social Services, In-Home Supportive Services, which is permissibly self-insured and administered by York Risk Services Group, Inc. The Petition for Reconsideration was denied by the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board, as they found no lawful grounds to grant reconsideration. The Board found that while there may have been inaccuracies in the medical record, they were not convinced that they materially affected the outcome of the case. Furthermore, the Board found that not all of the applicant’s assertions were correct. The Board accepted and considered the supplemental letter and documents submitted by the applicant, but they did not change the decision.
