Description

In this workers compensation case, we initially granted certiorari to determine if the court of appeal had properly applied the correct standard of review to the hearing officers factual findings. After careful review of the record, we conclude, however, that the primary issues in this case are (1) whether plaintiff is entitled to medical services to be paid by defendants, and (2) whether defendants refusal to pay for such services resulted in plaintiffs inability to prove disability under LSA-23:1221. The trial court found plaintiff was disabled and entitled to benefits and medical services. The court of appeal reversed. We set aside both judgments and remand the case to the hearing officer for entry of appropriate orders requiring defendants to pay for a complete neurological and orthopedic exam and any necessary treatment, and thereafter for a hearing and determination of disability and entitlement to penalties and attorneys fees.
