CompFox AI Summary
This case concerns an employer's petition to remove a WCJ's order compelling them to provide a complete list of their Medical Provider Network (MPN) in specific specialties. The employer argued this was overly burdensome, preferring to limit the list to providers within 30 miles of the applicant's residence. The Appeals Board denied removal, finding the WCJ's order was not burdensome or harassing under Administrative Director Rule 9767.12(f)(3). The Board noted the employer could fulfill the order electronically via CD or website, even if limited to the requested specialties.
