The WCAB granted reconsideration to clarify evidentiary issues regarding the applicant's industrial injury. The primary issues to be developed are whether the treating physician was within a valid Medical Provider Network (MPN) or if proper notice was given, and whether the physician's opinions constitute substantial evidence given an inadequate medical history. Additionally, the WCAB requires further development of the record regarding the applicant's refusal of modified work and conflicting testimony about her voluntary resignation, which impacts temporary disability entitlement.
