CompFox AI Summary

In this case, the applicant, Diane De Los Reyes, sought reimbursement for self-procured medical treatment related to her work-induced Reactive Airway Disease and Anxiety Disorder. The Appeals Board found that some of the applicant's self-procured treatment was likely industrial and reversed the WCJ's finding that all such treatment was non-industrial. The Board therefore rescinded the original order and returned the matter to the WCJ for further proceedings to determine the extent of reimbursable self-procured medical treatment and associated penalties. The applicant's entitlement to reimbursement for medical mileage and penalties thereon was affirmed.
