CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration and rescinded the prior order because the record lacked substantial evidence to determine if the applicant's temporary total disability had ended. The Board found that the medical reports submitted by both parties were deficient and that agreed medical evaluations were never performed. The case was returned to the trial level for further development of the record, including evaluations by agreed medical examiners, to address the applicant's orthopedic and psychiatric disability status.
