The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the petition, rescinded the original FF&O, and returned the case to the trial level. The Board found the existing medical opinions on causation flawed and insufficient to determine the issue of injury, thus requiring further development of the record. The WCJ was also instructed to re-evaluate witness credibility if necessary and to confirm the correct name of the insurer.
