RONALD JOHNSON vs. RUAN TRANSPORTATION, ACE AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) rescinded a prior decision finding no industrial injury to the applicant's low back. The WCAB determined that the Qualified Medical Evaluator's (QME) opinion lacked substantial medical evidence because the QME did not adequately address the applicant's claim of cumulative trauma. The case is returned for a new medical evaluation to address whether the applicant sustained a cumulative trauma injury.

RONALD JOHNSON vs. RUAN TRANSPORTATION; ACE, AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the applicant's petition for reconsideration of a May 22, 2014 decision. This action was taken due to statutory time constraints and the need for further review of the factual and legal issues. The Board requires more time to thoroughly understand the record and render a just decision. All future communications must be filed in writing with the WCAB Commissioners' office in San Francisco.
