Case No. ADJ1429214 (LAO 0753357)RegularSep 21, 2018
ELIAZAR ACEVEDO vs. SPIENELLO CONSTRUCTION, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND
This case involved an applicant's appeal of an Independent Medical Review (IMR) decision that denied home health care services, arguing the MTUS guidelines were erroneous. The applicant sought reconsideration of the WCJ's denial, claiming the MTUS conflicted with Labor Code section 4600 by requiring a homebound status. However, the applicant subsequently reached a settlement with the defendant on all outstanding issues. Therefore, the Appeals Board dismissed the applicant's Petition for Reconsideration and returned the matter to the trial level to finalize the settlement.
