WELCOME EDITOR’S LETTER
On August 23, 2022 from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m., I will be presenting at the WCI Conference on the topic of “Catastrophic Injuries in the Construction Industry.” Presenting along with me will be my partner Amy Siegel and the Vice President of Loss Prevention at Coastal Construction Brian Trusky. It is an honor to present, and to present alongside two people for whom I have a great deal of respect, in Amy and Further,Brian.it is an honor to present on this particular topic. When I started handling workers’ compensation claims almost adecade ago, the first industry that I became intimately familiar with was the construction industry. I started attending meetings and events for numerous construction organizations each week, and routinely presented at construction safety meetings. In doing so, I started to become very familiar with the unique aspects of the construction industry, and, in turn, the unique aspects of construction-related workers’ compensation claims. Unfortunately, this is an industry that does experience a high number of catastrophic claims, in light of the dangerous nature of the work involved. I look forward to presenting with Amy and Brian on this topic at the WCI, and hopefully providing those that attend a better understanding of effective ways of handling catastrophic claims in the construction industry.

KK TAKEAWAY: A general stipulation to “reasonable costs” made by an employer/carrier in response to a specific claim for costs is not sufficient to “stop the clock” on entitlement to employer/ carrier paid attorney’s fees.
KK TAKEAWAY: A counsel for claimant is entitled to an employer/carrier paid attorney fee when the following is met: (1) a specific request for costs is made in a Petition for Benefits, (2) proof of entitlement to those specific costs is provided to an employer/carrier, and (3) the employer/ carrier does not pay the costs within 30 days of receipt of the Petition for Benefits.
BACKGROUND: On May 10, 2022, JCC Medina-Shore issued an Evidentiary Hearing Order Awarding Prevailing Party Costs and Entitlement to Attorney’s Fees to claimant’s counsel. By way of background, Claimant’s Counsel filed a Petition for Benefits on August 4, 2021, requesting: (1) authorization of a follow-up visit to Concentra, (2) attorney’s fees, and (3) costs of $7.45 for certified mailing. A
Moresca v. Star Bakery, Inc.
OJCC Case No. (FL.Off.Judge.Comp.Cl.20-005619SMSMay10,2022)
KK TAKEAWAY: The 440 statutes do not mandate approval of employer/carrier paid costs by a JCC.
KK TAKEAWAY: A general stipulation to “reasonable costs” made by an employer/carrier in response to a general claim for costs is sufficient to “stop the clock” on entitlement to employer/carrier paid attorney’s fees.
On August 9, 2021, Counsel for Claimant provided proof of certified mailing to the Employer/Carrier, revealing the total postage and fees of $7.45. However, the Employer/ Carrier did not pay the $7.45 in costs following receipt of such proof, and alternatively filed a Motion to Compel Verified Petition for Fees and Costs on January 7, 2022. This Motion indicated that the Employer/Carrier had agreed to reimburse the Claimant for his prevailing party costs associated with obtaining the benefit requested, while also disputing attorney fee entitlement for securing the prevailing party costs.
An Order Granting the Motion to Compel Verified Petition for Fees and Costs was entered on January 20, 2022, and the Verified Petition was filed on January 31, 2022. On February 3, 2022, a Response to the Verified Petition was filed, but the Employer/Carrier had still not agreed to pay the $7.45. At the May 4, 2022 hearing, the Employer/Carrier agreed to pay Counsel for Claimant prevailing party costs, but it had not yet been paid. Counsel for Claimant argued that he was entitled to an Employer/Carrier paid attorney fees under §440.34(3) for securing the prevailing
| 5IN THE NOW party costs, a benefit to the Claimant, as the Employer/Carrier did not pay the costs within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Petition for Benefits. Counsel for Claimant asserted that the Employer/Carrier never actually stipulated to pay the actual costs of $7.45, but rather, conditioned acceptance of paying the costs upon the Claimant establishing them as reasonable. Conversely, the Employer/ Carrier argued that since they had stipulated to entitlement to reasonable costs within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Petition for Benefits, Counsel for Claimant would not be entitled to an Employer/Carrier paid attorney fees for securing the reasonable costs. They further argued that it was the Claimant’s burden to collect the costs and that costs would not even be payable until a JCC gives approval. JCC Medina-Shore first noted that “costs constitute a benefit for which a claimant is entitled to fees for securing entitlement.” In this case, the Claimant’s claim for costs was specific, indicating a certain amount of $7.45 for certified mailing. Counsel for Claimant provided proof of the certified mailing costs via receipt on August 9, 2021, but the Employer/Carrier did not pay the costs and waited six (6) months to file a Motion to Compel Verified Petition for Fees and Costs instead. Although the Employer/Carrier did agree to pay all reasonable costs incurred on the same date the Petition for Benefits was filed, this did not “stop the clock” on fee entitlement. JCC Medina-Shore distinguished cases involving a general claim for costs from cases making a specific claim for costs like Response to Petition for Benefits was filed by the Employer/Carrier on August 4, 2021, indicating that: (1) the Claimant was authorized to return to Concentra on August 10, 2021, (2) a Creole interpreter had been scheduled to attend the follow-up visit, (3) the Employer/ Carrier agreed to reimburse the Claimant for all reasonable costs incurred for obtaining the requested benefit, (4) attorney’s fees are not due or owing, and (5) the Employer/Carrier “did not pay the $7.45 in costs or object to them.”
6 | IN THE NOW this one, where the Employer/Carrier has the “necessary information . . . to determine the reasonableness of costs.” She found that the Employer/Carrier’s agreement to reimburse “reasonable costs” rather than the $7.45 in costs was “in essence a challenge” and not a stipulation to costs entitlement. Further, that this was supported by the Employer/Carrier’s decision to file a Motion to Compel Verified Fee Petition despite having the necessary costs information in their possession.
BACKGROUND: On June 17, 2022, JCC Anderson issued a Final Compensation Order with regard to the compensability of the Claimant’s work accident and resulting injury. By way of background, the Claimant sustained a compensable injury to her right knee on October 11, 2021 while employed by the City of Palm Coast. On October 20, 2021, she used an employee bathroom at work while wearing
KK TAKEAWAY: An injury caused by the use of DME equipment prescribed by an authorized treating physician may be acceptable if the equipment placed the claimant in an abnormal or awkward position leading to the injury.
JCC Medina-Shore then rejected the Employer/Carrier’s assertion that JCC Medina-Shore’s ruling in Alvarez v. 8433 Office Building, Inc. supports their position. Alvarez involved a specific $6.80 claim for costs, but it was not supplemented by supporting documentation. As such, the general stipulation to costs entitlement made by the Employer/Carrier was appropriate, as they lacked the documentation necessary to assess the reasonableness of the costs. JCC found that the Counsel for Claimant in that case was not entitled to Employer/Carrier paid attorney’s fees as the Employer/Carrier had stipulated to costs. The Employer/Carrier lastly argued that since a JCC must approve Employer/Carrier paid costs, the Claimant’s claim for costs would not be ripe, due, or owing. However, JCC MedinaShore rejected this contention noting that it was unsupported by law, as “neither Section 440.34(1) nor 440.105(3)(c) mandated approval of Employer/Carrier paid costs by a BasedJCC.” upon the foregoing, JCC Medina-Shore ruled that the Employer/Carrier owed Counsel for Claimant costs in the amount of $7.45, and that Counsel for Claimant was entitled to Employer/Carrier paid attorney fees for securing the $7.45 in costs.
KK TAKEAWAY: The test for compensability for a subsequent injury is whether that injury is the direct and natural result of a compensable primary injury.
Morelewicz v. City of Palm Coast OJCC Case No. (FL.Off.Judge.Comp.Cl.21-025559WWAJune17,2022)
KK TAKEAWAY: An injury that is the direct and natural result of a compensable primary injury can be filed under a new date of accident.
At the Final Hearing, photographs of the bathroom stall were introduced into evidence, which revealed a spacious commercial bathroom stall designed to be wheelchair accessible. The toilet was slightly elevated with grab bars on the wall behind and to the left of the toilet when in a seated position.
The Claimant testified that this bathroom was very different from the one she used at home, which had a countertop to the right of the toilet that she used to push herself from
| 7IN THE NOW a knee brace and using crutches prescribed by the authorized physician. She leaned the crutches against the wall to her left near the toilet and sat down while her knee brace kept her right leg extended. When she attempted to get up, she placed her left hand on the support bar attached to the wall and reached for her crutches with her right arm. At that time, the Claimant put all her weight onto her left leg, as her right leg was extended, and she heard a loud pop in her left knee that caused an immediate burning sensation. She presented to a clinic the next day where she reported her incident, and she was diagnosed with a left knee sprain. The Employer/Carrier denied compensability of the entire claim, filing a DWC-12 Notice of Denial on October 25, 2021. The Claimant returned to the same clinic the next day where she was referred to an orthopedic physician. On November 3, 2021, the Claimant filed a Petition for Benefits requesting compensability of the October 20, 2021 accident and left knee injury, and an orthopedic specialist to treat the left knee. As expected, the Employer/Carrier responded to the Petition denying the entire claim.
8 | IN THE NOW the seat rather than twisting to use a grab bar. The Claimant obtained an IME with Dr. Charles Kollmer, who opined that she sustained a left knee sprain and probable meniscus tear in the October 20, 2021 accident. He opined that the Major Contributing Cause of the left knee injury was the “abnormal position resulting from the extended right leg caused by the right knee brace and the need to twist to reach her crutches.”
Thermitus v. Rooms to Go OJCC Case No. (FL.Off.Judge.Comp.Cl.18-012157RAAAugust 3, 2022) KK TAKEAWAY: The questions to be answered when determining the definition of “specialty” in the context of §440.13 are: what education, experience, training, skill, focus of practice, and exam qualification does the authorized provider possess; and does the new doctor possess the same education, experience, training, skill, focus of practice, and exam qualification to permit the continuation of the claimant’s course of treatment, such that the change in doctor does not necessitate a change in the course of treatment that frustrates the intent of the statute?
The Employer/Carrier lastly argued that because the Petition for Benefits alleged a different date from the original October 11, 2021 date of accident, the prior accident’s impact on her ability to get up from the toilet should be ignored and not considered when determining compensability of the subsequent accident. In doing so, the Employer/Carrier relied on cases like Silberberg and Valcourt-Williams to argue that any injury resulting from rising from the toilet did not arise out of the Claimant’s employment. However, JCC Anderson rejected this argument asserting that the cited cases do not apply, as they did not involve a subsequent injury that occurred as a direct and natural consequence of a prior compensable injury. Based upon the foregoing, JCC Anderson ruled that the Claimant’s subsequent accident on October 20, 2021 was compensable, and granted the request for evaluation and treatment with an orthopedic physician.
JCC Anderson found this to be a clear case of a subsequent compensable injury occurring as a direct and natural consequence of a prior compensable injury, as the Claimant experienced an unexpected or unusual event/ result that happened suddenly when she attempted to get up from the toilet. This would meet the definition of an “accident” in §440.02(1). JCC Anderson turned to U-Haul of South Florida v. March, a 1st DCA case that involved a claimant who was wearing a cast on his right foot and using crutches due to a compensable work injury. While at home, he injured his right shoulder after he lost balance and fell down a flight of stairs due to the awkward way in which he had to descend the stairs on crutches. JCC Anderson was unable to distinguish this case from March.
| 9IN THE NOW
BACKGROUND: On August 3, 2022, JCC Arthur issued a Final Compensation Order with regard to the Claimant’s request for a one-time change in authorized treating physician. By way of background, the Claimant was involved in a work-related accident on May 1, 2018 and was authorized to treat with pain management doctor Dr. Daniel Frowhein. On August 24, 2021, the Claimant requested a one-time change from Dr. Frowhein. On August 26, 2021, the Employer/Carrier timely authorized Dr. Marc Gerber as the one-time change pain management doctor and provided appointment information. The Claimant objected to authorization of Dr. Gerber on the ground that Dr. Gerber was not an equivalent change in doctor, and sought to authorize a doctor of his choosing. Thus, the issues in this case were whether Dr. Gerber and Dr. Frowhein practiced in the same specialty, and whether the Claimant was in “the course of treatment” with Dr. Frowhein when he requested the change in doctor.
KK TAKEAWAY: The definition of “same specialty” in the context of §440.13 does not equate to same board certifications. the claimant in an abnormal or awkward position leading to the injury.
Florida Statute §440.13 states “[u]pon the written request of the employee, the carrier shall give the employee the opportunity for one change of physician during the course of treatment for any one accident. Upon the
10 | IN THE NOW
Dr. Frowhein and Dr. Gerber have practiced in the same surgery centers for years and testified that they are the same pain medicine doctors who have completed the same fellowship training, passed the same qualifying examinations in pain medicine, are certified to provide the same treatment modalities, and both dedicate their medical practices in the same field, pain medicine. JCC Arthur ultimately ruled that Dr. Gerber “possesse[d] the education, training, experience, skill, and focus of practice to continue the Claimant’s course of treatment, such that it d[id] not frustrate the intent of the statute, as he ha[d] the same fellowship training, passed the same certification exam, [was] qualified to perform the same treatment modalities, and focuse[d] his practice in the same field of medicine as Dr. Frohwein.”
JCC Arthur found that the in the course of treatment element is met so long as the doctor is not an IME and that he/she was authorized for the purpose of determining whether treatment is warranted. It did not matter that the Claimant was discharged form Dr. Frowhein’s care at the initial visit. The Claimant then argued that Dr. Gerber and Dr. Frowhein were not in the same specialty. Dr. Frowhein is board-certified anesthesiologist and Dr. Gerber is a boardcertified physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor. However, both doctors subspecialize in pain medicine. Testimony of Dr. Gerber, Dr. Frowhein, and Claimant IME Dr. Eugene Melvin were all consistent as to the process and requirements of obtaining a certification in the sub-specialty of pain management/ pain medicine. They ultimately opined that “all doctors, regardless of their prerequisite board certification, with a certification in pain medicine, are doctors of the same specialty.”
Based upon the foregoing, JCC Arthur found that Dr. Gerber is a physician in the same specialty as Dr. Frowhein, and that Dr. Gerber was appropriately authorized as the claimant’s one-time change in treating physician.
In doing so, he rejected the Claimant’s argument that “same specialty” in the context of §440.13(2)(f) equates to same board certification. JCC Arthur found that the adoption of such a definition would frustrate the intent of the Florida workers’ compensation statutes, leading to an “interruption or degradation of the care being provided to the Claimant.” If the Claimant’s definition of §440.13 were adopted, then non-board-certified doctors would have no specialty. Additionally, it may lead to an impossibility of finding a second doctor with the exact same certifications and subcertifications near the claimant.
granting of a change of physician, the originally authorized physician in the same specialty as the changed physician shall become deauthorized upon written notification by the employer or carrier.”
With regard to the “in the course of treatment” issue, the Employer/Carrier asserted that the Claimant was never in the course of treatment with Dr. Frowhein, as he only saw the doctor on one occasion where Dr. Frowhein discharged him and opined that the work accident was not the Major Contributing Cause (MCC) for any future pain management treatment. As such, the one visit would not be considered “in the course of treatment.”
