CompFox AI Summary

This case concerns an applicant claiming cumulative trauma injury to his right knee. The WCJ denied the claim, finding the Panel QME's report insufficient to establish cumulative trauma. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration, noting the PQME found an injury and work-related causation but incorrectly characterized it as a specific injury on a particular date. The Board remanded the case to develop the medical record, specifically directing a supplemental report from the PQME on the cumulative trauma aspect of the claim.
