In Courtney Hutchinson v. Auto Zone and Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. the authorized physician placed claimant at MMI with no restrictions for his compensable foot injury. Claimant’s IME provider opined to the contrary, indicating MMI had not been reached and additional remedial treatment was appropriate. To the extent the expert opinions were in disagreement, the JCC accepted those of the authorized physician. Concluding MMI was established, and no further care was necessary, the claim for a return visit to the authorized physician was DENIED.
