JEAN TOLLIVER vs. LIVINGSTON MEMORIAL VISITING NURSES, STATE COMPENSATION INSURANCE FUND

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted the defendant's petition for removal, finding the original discovery order overbroad. The Board amended the order to limit the requested documents to those specifically relating to the applicant's Independent Medical Review (IMR) appeals dated July 10 and July 16, 2014. This decision addresses the scope of discovery in workers' compensation cases involving utilization review and IMR determinations. The applicant sustained an industrial injury in 1993 and has a permanent disability award.
