CHARLES CAMPBELL, Claimant Below, Petitioner v. DEBRICH, LLC/DUSTER TRUCKING, Employer Below, Respondent
(BOR Appeal No. 2055720) (Claim No. 2014021769)
MEMORANDUM DECISION
Petitioner Charles Campbell, by counsel Reginald D. Henry and Lori J. Withrow, appeals the decision of the West Virginia Workers' Compensation Board of Review ("Board of Review"). Debrich, LLC/Duster Trucking, by counsel Daniel G. Murdock, filed a timely response.
The issue on appeal is whether Mr. Campbell is entitled to the requested treatment in the claim. On March 27, 2020, the claims administrator issued an Order denying three separate requests for medical treatment: (1) a November 1, 2019, request for a referral to a neurologist; (2) a November 1, 2019, request for a peripheral nerve trial; and (3) an October 3, 2019, request for left lumbar sympathetic plexus block injections. The Workers' Compensation Office of Judges ("Office of Judges") affirmed the claims administrator's Order on September 18, 2020. This appeal arises from the Board of Review's Order dated December 30, 2020, in which the Board affirmed the Order of the Office of Judges.
This Court has considered the parties' briefs and the record on appeal. The facts and legal...
