CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board affirmed a prior ruling that Premier Outpatient Surgery Center was properly licensed and not required to have a fictitious name permit for services rendered. The defendant argued Premier lacked proper licensure and a fictitious name permit, but the Board found Premier met its burden of proof by submitting evidence of its licensure and accreditation. Premier was determined to be an "outpatient setting" rather than a "clinic," thus not requiring a fictitious name permit from the Medical Board.
