California workers’ comp cap ruled constitutional

Chiropractic Economics June 5, 2008

June 5, 2008 — A California law capping the number of chiropractic treatments for workers’ compensation injuries is constitutional, a state appeals court has ruled.

 

In the case of Jose Facundo-Guerrero vs. Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB), Nurserymen’s Exchange, et al, the court ruled that the state had the legal authority to place limits on chiropractic treatments.

 

Facundo-Guerrero had received 76 treatments for an on-the-job injury, but only 24 were paid for under the law. He sued, claiming the cap violated a constitutional mandate for a workers’ comp system that fully treats injuries.
