US AIRWAYS GROUP, INC. v. MARCIA MORGAN AND MICHAEL APRIL, M. D. & ASSOCIATES

PER CURIAM

UNPUBLISHED

Present: Judges McCullough, Decker and Senior Judge Felton MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS' COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Michael N. Salveson; Charles F. Trowbridge; Littler Mendelson, on briefs), for appellant. (Bruce M. Bender; Erica T. Davis; Axelson, Williamowsky, Bender & Fishman, P.C., on brief), for appellees.

Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication. --------

US Airways Group, Inc. ("employer") appeals from a September 1, 2015 opinion of the Workers' Compensation Commission affirming a deputy commissioner's opinion. The deputy commissioner found that medical treatment rendered by Dr. Michael April ("provider") was reasonable, necessary, and causally related to Marcia Morgan's ("claimant") November 19, 1999 work accident and that the treatment was authorized. On appeal, employer contends the Commission erred by finding that (1) provider is an authorized treating physician and (2) provider's medical treatment of claimant was reasonable, necessary, and causally related to the November 19, 1999 accident.

Upon reviewing the record and briefs, we conclude that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we summarily affirm the Commission's decision. Rule 5A:27. We affirm for the reasons stated by the Commission in its final opinion. See Morgan v. US Airways Group, Inc., JCN 2000966 (Sept. 1, 2015). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.

Affirmed.
