EXPEDITED HEARING ORDER DENYING BENEFITS
This matter came before the undersigned Workers' Compensation Judge upon the
Request for Expedited Hearing (REH) filed by Shanan Holbom on October 28, 2016,
pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-239 (2015) to determine if Wal-
Mart, is obligated to pay temporary disability benefits, reimbursement for emergency
room visits, and provide additional medical treatment for Ms. Holbom's work-related
injuries.' Pursuant to Tennessee Compilation Rules and Regulations 0800-02-21-.02(13)
(20 15), Ms. Holbom requested that the Court issue a ruling based on a review of the file
without an evidentiary hearing. Wal-Mart voiced no objection. Considering the
positions of the parties, the applicable law, and all of the evidence submitted, the Court
concludes it needs no further information to render judgment.
On November 17, 2016, the Court sent a Docketing Notice to the parties regarding
the contents of the record to be reviewed on November 30. (T.R. 19.) Wal-Mart made
numerous objections to statements contained in Ms. Holbom's affidavits. (Ex. 46, 47.)
The Court sustains Wal-Mart's objection to hearsay contained in Paragraph 4 of the
1
Ms. Holbom's claims were previously addressed in an Expedited Hearing Order dated June 28,2016. The Order is
attached hereto and incorporated by reference in its entirety, as are the exhibits and testimony considered in
rendering the opinion. In determining this claim, the Court takes judicial notice of testimony heard and exhibits
admitted into evidence at the prior in-person Expedited Hearing. See Hughes v. New Life Dev. Corp., 387 S.W.3d
453,457 n.l (Tenn. 2012), holding, "we are permitted to take judicial notice of the facts from earlier proceedings in
the same action."
1
Affidavit marked as Exhibit 46 regarding Dr. Cruz's comments as well as the hearsay in
Paragraph 6 regarding Dr. Yu's recommendations, but only to the extent this information
is not contained within otherwise admissible medical records attached as exhibits. The
Court also sustains objections made to the admissibility of records, or the information
contained within them, that were ruled inadmissible at the prior hearing. The remaining
objections brought by Wal-Mart are overruled.
The dispositive issues are whether Ms. Holborn is entitled to further medical
treatment for her right foot and low back injuries and whether she is entitled to further
medical treatment for her low back injury with a doctor other than Dr. Leonardo
Rodriguez-Cruz. Secondary issues include whether Ms. Holbom is entitled to temporary
disability benefits and whether she was justified in seeking unauthorized emergency
room treatment for her low back, and is thus entitled to reimbursement for those
expenses. The Court finds the evidence submitted by Ms. Holborn is insufficient to
establish she is likely to prevail at trial with regard to any of these issues at this time.
History of Claim
The Court recounted the history of Ms. Holborn's claims prior to June 28, 2016, in
the first Expedited Hearing Order, which is incorporated herein by reference. (T.R. 1.)
In accordance with the Order, Wal-Mart authorized Ms. Holborn to return to Dr.
Leonardo Rodriguez Cruz for reasonable and necessary treatment of her work-related low
back injury. Ms. Holborn returned to Dr. Cruz on July 21, 2016, and reported moderate
low back pain radiating down her left side, unchanged since her last visit, and pain
radiating from her right heel to the back of her kneecap. (Ex. 3 at 1.)
On exam, Dr. Cruz noted moderate right-sided muscle tenderness and spasms in
Ms. Holborn's low back; however, the straight leg raise test was negative bilaterally.
(Ex. 3 at 2.) Dr. Cruz placed Ms. Holborn at maximum medical improvement as of her
last appointment on January 19, 20 15, and assigned a two percent impairment rating to
the body as a whole. He kept her work restrictions at the "light-medium demand level."
He further opined that her "uneven gait is related to her right-foot pain causing low back
pain" and recommended she follow-up with her orthopedic appointment for her right-foot
injury. Dr. Cruz concluded by stating there was no need for Ms. Holbom to follow-up
with him. !d.
With regard to her right-foot injury, Ms. Holborn returned to Dr. Alan Drake on
July 12, 2016. (Ex. 4 at 2.) Dr. Drake noted that Ms. Holborn asserted her foot pain had
"shifted somewhat" so that she now hurt through her entire right heel. She also claimed
to suffer some numbness and tingling across the top of her foot and the medial aspect of
her lower leg. !d. On examination, Dr. Drake did not note any abnormalities. He did not
write any new prescriptions, but recommended an evaluation by a podiatrist located in
Sparta or a foot specialist at Tennessee Orthopedic Alliance (TOA). !d. at 3.
2
In response, Wal-Mart authorized Ms. Holborn to see Dr. James Yu, an
orthopedist with TOA, on August 4, 2016. The Work-Link Physician's Report from
August 4, 2016, indicates Dr. Yu recommended that Ms. Holborn undergo an MRI of her
right foot. (Ex. 5 at 1.) She returned to Dr. Yu on August 25, 2016, for follow-up. Dr.
Yu noted Ms. Holborn "continues to have diffuse pain radiating from the hip and
buttocks area down her leg to her foot." (Ex. 5 at 2.) Examination revealed mild
tenderness on general palpation of her right foot, but no point tenderness. Dr. Yu
reviewed the MRI and noted it was basically normal. !d. Dr. Yu concluded Ms.
Holbom's symptoms did not stem from her foot, but originated from her low back given
that she reported an abnormal lumbar MRl and complained of radiating pain from her hip
and buttocks to her foot. As a result, he recommended that she return to her "spine
surgeon" or possibly seek another opinion. He did not recommend any restrictions for
her right foot. I d.
In addition to the medical records, Ms. Holborn also submitted two affidavits. In
one affidavit, Ms. Holborn indicated the symptoms in her back and foot have not resolved
since her initial injuries and new symptoms have arisen, although she did not specify the
nature of these symptoms. (Ex. 1.) She further indicated she still suffers from pain and
continues to be unable to work. ld. In the other affidavit, Ms. Holborn provided further
testimony regarding her emergency room visits detailed in the previous order. (Ex. 2.)
She averred that after being released by her authorized doctor on January 19, 20 14, she
called CMI, Wal-Mart's third-party administrator, in an attempt to get another
appointment scheduled, but no one would return her calls. !d. She further averred that
after her initial emergency room visit, she again attempted to contact CMI to obtain a
follow-up appointment with her authorized physician, but again received no response. As
a result, she again went to the emergency room. !d.
Finally, Ms. Holborn provided a statement detailing mileage expenses for her
visits to TOA and to obtain the MRI of her right foot. (Ex. 6.) The statement requested
$208.96 in reimbursement. However, Wal-Mart stated in its Response to Ms. Holborn's
REH that it has since provided complete reimbursement for Ms. Holborn's mileage
expenses. (T.R. 4.)
Ms. Holborn contended she is entitled to additional medical care for her low back
given that she remains incapacitated by pain and Dr. Yu opined her right lower extremity
symptoms stemmed from her low back injury and recommended she see a spine surgeon
for follow-up. She also contended she is entitled to temporary disability benefits given
that she is unable to work due to her condition. Finally, she contended she was
compelled to seek emergency room treatment for her pain since CMI, Wal-Mart's third-
party administrator, refused to acknowledge her requests for additional medical care
following Dr. Cruz's release.
3
Wal-Mart countered that it has provided Ms. Holbom with all medical benefits
required by law in full compliance with the Court's previous order. Furthermore, Ms.
Holbom has not provided any expert medical opinions establishing she is entitled to
temporary disability benefits. Finally, Ms. Holbom has not provided sufficient evidence
to establish she attempted to contact Wal-Mart or CMI before going to the emergency
room or that the expenses incurred there were reasonable and necessary for treatment of
her work-related injuries. As a result, the Court should deny Ms. Holbom's request for
benefits.
Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law
The Court considers the following legal principles in reaching its conclusions in
this matter. The Court must interpret the Workers' Compensation Law fairly, impartially
and in accordance with basic principles of statutory construction favoring neither the
employee nor employer. Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-116 (2015). Ms. Holbom has the
burden of proof on all essential elements of her claim. Scott v. Integrity Staffing
Solutions, No. 2015-01-0055, 2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 24, at *6 (Tenn.
Workers' Comp. App. Bd. Aug. 18, 20 15).
Ms. Holbom need not prove every element of her claim by a preponderance of the
evidence in order to obtain relief at an expedited hearing. McCord v. Advantage Human
Resourcing, No. 2014-06-0063, 2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 6, at *7-8, 9
(Tenn. Workers' Comp. App. Bd. Mar. 27, 2015). At an expedited hearing, Ms. Holbom
has the burden to come forward with sufficient evidence from which the trial court can
determine she is likely to prevail at a hearing on the merits. !d. This lesser evidentiary
standard does not relieve an employee of the burden of producing evidence of an injury
by accident that arose primarily out of and in the course and scope of employment at an
expedited hearing, but "allows some relief to be granted if that evidence does not rise to
the level of a 'preponderance of the evidence."' Buchanan v. Car/ex Glass Co., No.
2015-01-0012, 2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 39, at *6 (Tenn. Workers' Comp.
App. Bd. Sept. 29, 2015).
In the previously-issued Order, the Court determined that Dr. Cruz remained Ms.
Holbom's authorized physician for any additional medical care she might reasonably
require for treatment of her work-related injury on July 4, 2014. Wal-Mart complied with
this Order by authorizing a follow-up appointment with Dr. Cruz on July 21, 2016.
Following his examination, Dr. Cruz opined that Ms. Holbom's impairment, restrictions,
and MMI date remained the same as the last time he saw her. He further opined that any
back pain was referred from the altered gait caused by her right-foot injury, and there was
no need for him to see her for additional treatment, nor did he refer her for further
evaluation or treatment.
Subsequently, Wal-Mart authorized Dr. Drake to treat Ms. Holbom for her right-
4
foot injury, again in compliance with the Court's previous Order. Dr. Drake found no
abnormalities, but referred Ms. Holbom to a podiatrist or a "foot specialist" at Tennessee
Orthopedic Alliance (TOA). Wal-Mart complied with this instruction by sending Ms.
Holbom to Dr. Yu with TOA. Dr. Yu did not find any abnormalities in Ms. Holborn's
foot, but opined that, based on her history and her symptoms, her low back injury caused
the pain that radiated down her lower extremity to her foot. He recommended that she
return to Dr. Cruz or see another specialist for a second opinion.
Ms. Holbom argued that Dr. Yu's referral entitles her to see another doctor for her
low back injury given that Dr. Cruz has already indicated there is no need for him to see
her for additional treatment. While her argument has some merit on its face, the Court
denies her request for the following reasons:
First, Dr. Cruz is a neurosurgeon who saw Ms. Holbom several times and who had
an opportunity to review the MRI taken of Ms. Holbom's lumbar spine. Dr. Yu is an
orthopedist specializing in foot injuries who only saw Ms. Holborn on one occasion and
did not actually review her lumbar MRI. Furthermore, Dr. Cruz's opinion is substantially
corroborated by the independent medical evaluation of neurosurgeon, Douglas Matthews,
M.D., as described in the previous Order.
Finally, Dr. Yu, who saw Ms. Holbom only after her dismissal by Dr. Cruz,
clearly relied upon Ms. Holborn' s complaints and description of her history in rendering
his opinion. Based on the records, it appears Ms. Holbom's complaints to Dr. Cruz were
quite different from those described to Dr. Yu. Dr. Cruz noted Ms. Holbom asserted her
low back symptoms were unchanged from her last visit, and she suffered from moderate
low back pain that radiated on her left side. Dr. Cruz did not document any complaints of
radiating pain on the right side in his June 14, 2016 note. Ms. Holborn also complained
of pain that radiated from her right heel to the back of her kneecap. Dr. Yu, on the other
hand, observed that Ms. Holborn "continues to have diffuse pain radiating from the hip
and buttocks area down her leg to her foot." (Emphasis added.)
It is generally within a trial court's discretion to choose which expert to accredit
when there is a conflict of expert opinions. Kellerman v. Food Lion, Inc., 929 S.W.2d
333, 334 (Tenn. 1996); Johnson v. Midwesco, Inc., 801 S.W.2d 804, 806 (Tenn. 1990).
Given the factors stated above, the Court gives greater weight to Dr. Cruz's opinion that
Ms. Holborn does not require any additional medical treatment at this time for the work-
related injury to her low back. Therefore, the Court finds that, at this time, Wal-Mart has
provided all medical benefits required by Workers' Compensation Law and the Court's
previous Order and holds that Ms. Holborn has not provided sufficient evidence at this
time to establish her likelihood at prevailing at trial on this issue.
As to Ms. Holborn's request for temporary disability benefits, "an injured worker
may be entitled to temporary partial disability benefits when the temporary disability
5
resulting from a work-related injury is not total." Hackney v. Integrity Staffing Solutions,
No. 2016-01-0091, TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 29 at *11 (Tenn. Workers' Comp.
App. Bd., July 22, 2016). As the Tennessee Supreme Court's Special Workers'
Compensation Appeals Panel has observed, "[t]emporary partial disability refers to the
time, if any, during which the injured employee is able to resume some gainful
employment but has not reached maximum recovery." ld., (quoting Williams v. Saturn
Corp., No. M2004-01215-WC-R3-CV, 2005 Tenn. LEXIS 1032, at *6 (Tenn. Workers'
Comp. Panel Nov. 15, 2005)). However, an employee is not entitled to temporary
disability benefits simply because a physician has assigned temporary restrictions if the
employee is able to work without loss of income. !d. Furthermore, temporary disability
benefits are not owed once the employee reaches maximum medical improvement.
Simpson v. Satterfield, 564 S.W.2d 953, 955 (Tenn. 1978).
As described in the previous Order, Dr. Drake placed Ms. Holborn under
restrictions for her low back complaints on August 25, 2014, of no lifting more than five
pounds and no prolonged standing. After receiving the restrictions, Ms. Holborn returned
to work for one day, but stopped working thereafter, claiming her back hurt too much.
She did not provide any evidence to establish that the duties Wal-Mart asked her to
perform violated Dr. Drake's restrictions.
Dr. Cruz opined Ms. Holborn reached maximum medical improvement on January
19, 2015. When he saw her again on July 21, 2016, he reiterated his opinion that Ms.
Holborn had reached maximum medical improvement for her low back on January 19,
2015. Ms. Holborn has offered no medical evidence indicating otherwise. Ms. Holborn
provided no evidence she has ever been taken off work or received physical restrictions
from any doctor for her right-foot injury.
Thus, the issue is whether Ms. Holborn is entitled to temporary partial disability
benefits from August 27, 2014, until January 19, 2015, which requires the Court to
determine if the parties put forth a reasonable effort in returning Ms. Holborn to work.
Hackney, at * 12. "The ultimate resolution of [this issue] will be leavened by an
assessment of the reasonableness of the employer in attempting to return the employee to
work and the reasonableness of the employee in failing to return to work." !d. at 12-13,
(quoting Newton v. Scott Health Care Ctr., 914· S.W.2d 884, 886 (Tenn. Workers' Comp.
Panel 1995)).
In this instance, Ms. Holborn did not provide any evidence that Wal-Mart failed to
accommodate the restrictions placed on her by Dr. Drake when she returned to work in
August 2014. Furthermore, she only attempted to work one day before stating she could
not do it due to low back pain. She provided no evidence that she asked Wal-Mart to
modify the work it had provided her to assist with her pain. She also provided no
evidence to indicate she asked either Dr. Drake or Dr. Cruz to modify her restrictions
further. Under the circumstances, the Court finds Ms. Holborn failed to establish she is
6
likely to prevail at trial in proving that her refusal to work under Dr. Drake's restrictions
was reasonable. !d. As a result, the Court holds Ms. Holbom is not entitled to temporary
disability benefits at this time.
With regard to Ms. Holbom's unauthorized emergency room visits, whether an
employee is justified in seeking payment for unauthorized medical expenses from an
employer depends upon the circumstances of each case. Buchanan v. Mission Ins. Co.,
713 S.W.2d 654, 656 (Tenn. 1986). In Buchanan, the Supreme Court concluded that the
statute:
[M]akes it clear that the intent [of the Legislature] ... was for the employee
to certainly do no less than consult his employer before incurring the
expenses called for by that statute if the employee expects the employer to
pay for it. The opposite would seem to be against public policy.
!d. at 657. In addition, the Supreme Court has held that when an employee receives
medical care for a work-related injury that the employer did not authorize, the employee
must establish the necessity and reasonableness of the charges before the employer is
responsible. Moore v. Town of Collierville, 124 S.W.3d 93, 98 (Tenn. 2004).
In this matter, Ms. Holbom stated in her affidavit that that she did not seek
emergent care until after Dr. Cruz discharged her on January 19, 2015, and she could not
get CMI to return her calls regarding additional treatment. However, as described in the
previous order, her first emergency room visit, and the only one she provided any records
for, occurred on October 6, 2014, while Dr. Cruz was still treating her. There was no
medical evidence establishing why emergent care was reasonable or necessary.
Furthermore, Ms. Holbom did not provide any evidence as to whether she attempted to
receive authorization from Wal-Mart before seeking emergent care for those
unauthorized visits. Buchanan, at 656. Under the circumstances, the Court finds Ms.
Holbom provided insufficient evidence to establish she would likely prevail at trial
regarding reimbursement of emergency room expenses. As a result, the Court denies her
request for reimbursement at this time.
Finally, Ms. Holbom also sought reimbursement for mileage expenses for her trips
to Nashville during her treatment with Dr. Yu. Ms. Holbom is certainly entitled to those
expenses; however, Wal-Mart indicated that it has already paid them, and Ms. Holbom
provided no information to the contrary. Therefore, the issue appears moot.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED as follows:
1. Ms. Holbom's request for additional medical benefits, reimbursement of past
medical expenses, and temporary disability benefits is denied at this time.
