CompFox AI Summary

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration, upholding the finding of a 2% permanent disability to the right knee and denying claims for injury to other body parts. The applicant argued the decision lacked substantial medical evidence and that exhibits were wrongly excluded due to an invalid Medical Provider Network. One Board member dissented, believing Dr. Saucedo's report was insufficient as it didn't address activities of daily living or all claimed injuries, recommending further development of the medical record.
