WORKERS* * COMPENSATION DECS 1991 Re: Claim No: 010733-001516-WC-01 Claimant: Employer: The Sherwin-Williams company D/Injury: 5/12/93 Dear Ms. Nevin: REDACTED This is in response to your letters of 10/1/93 and 11/17/93 forwarding billings in the above matter presumably related to Mr. s treatment in connection with the alleged exposure to paint fumes. We have reviewed the bills submitted in connection with the subpoenaed records from Dr. Hutchison's office. It does appear that these bills conform to his records and analysis while in the process of attempting to determine the basis of Mr. complaints. Accordingly, we believe that these bills would probably be related to treatment for the accepted injury, and should be paid as appropriate, although we would add some qualifications to that recommendation. The qualifications would be that we would recommend that you contact Dr. Kim asking him to submit medical reports justifying his bills. Apparently, Dr. Kira was the private physician who treats the early stages of his symptoms; and, from that point forward, it was determined that further exploration should be done on an industrial basis. Accordingly, Dr. Kim should provide you with records and reports covering his evaluations. One additional recommendation we would make would be to write to Dr. Hutchison asking him for a final report stating that the applicant has recovered from any possible industrial exposure, N40207 "4t Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. Re: November 30, 1993 Page Two . REDACTED has no permanent disability, and has no need for further medical care. With a report such as that in hand, we would be in a better position to move to the Workers' compensation Appeals Board to get this matter either resolved or dismissed. We are returning the original copies of the billings herewith; and, we do note that some of the documents are duplications. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
