Manorcare Health Services v. Shannon L. Walker ( 2012 )

COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: Judges Petty, Chafin and Senior Judge Annunziata
MANORCARE HEALTH SERVICES,
ALEXANDRIA #4074, AND
AIG NATIONAL INSURANCE COMPANY
MEMORANDUM OPINION *
v. Record No. 0914-12-4 PER CURIAM
SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
SHANNON L. WALKER
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Douglas A. Seymour; Siciliano, Ellis, Dyer & Boccarosse PLC, on
brief), for appellants.
(Shannon L. Walker, pro se, on brief).
Manorcare Health Services, Alexandria #4074, and AIG National Insurance Company
appeal the ruling of the Workers’ Compensation Commission that they are responsible for the
cost of Shannon L. Walker’s ongoing medical treatment for her lower back because it is
necessary, reasonable, and causally related to her October 20, 2008 work accident. We have
reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Walker
v. Manorcare Health Servs., Alexandria #4074, VWC File VA00000018701 (Apr. 18, 2012).
We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the
decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
