       EXPEDITED HEARING ORDER GRANTING BENEFITS IN PART
                      (REVIEW OF THE FILE)


        This cause came before the undersigned Workers' Compensation Judge upon the
Request for Expedited Hearing (REH) filed by the employee, Shannon Lunsford,
pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-239 (2015) to determine if the
employer, Deem First, is obligated to provide workers' compensation benefits. Pursuant
to Rule 0800-02-21-.02(13) (2015) of the Tennessee Compilation Rules and Regulations,
Mr. Lunsford requested the Court issue a ruling based on a review of the file without an
evidentiary hearing. On September 15, 2016, the Court sent a Docketing Notice to the
parties regarding the contents of the record before it. (T.R. 4.) Neither party raised any
objection to the documents contained in the record. Considering the positions of the
parties, the applicable law, and all of the evidence submitted, the Court concludes it
needs no further information to render judgment.

        Although it is undisputed that Mr. Lunsford sustained a work-related injury on
July 22, 2015, the parties disagree on several other issues. Mr. Lunsford contends he is
entitled to an evaluation to determine whether he is entitled to a permanent impairment
rating for the injury to his face. The parties also disagree as to whether Mr. Lunsford is
entitled to an entirely separate panel for his alleged low back injury. Mr. Lunsford

                                            1
further seeks a panel of physicians for treatment for a left knee injury he alleges he
sustained as a result of the July 22, 2015 incident. Finally, the parties disagree as to
whether Mr. Lunsford is entitled to additional temporary total disability benefits as well
as the calculation of Mr. Lunsford's average weekly wage and resulting compensation
rate.

        The Court holds Deem First is not under a legal obligation to provide another
panel of specialists for treatment of Mr. Lunsford's alleged low back injuries, but he is
entitled to a panel of orthopedists for treatment of any left knee injury he may have
sustained in the July 22, 2015 fall. The Court further holds Mr. Lunsford is entitled to an
evaluation by a specialist to determine what, if any, permanent impairment he may have
sustained as a result of his facial injuries. Finally, the Court holds Deem First is
obligated to provide a wage statement in compliance with Tennessee Code Annotated
section 102(3)(C) (2015) in order to calculate Mr. Lunsford's compensation rate;
however, Mr. Lunsford has not established he is entitled to temporary total disability
benefits beyond the period already paid by Deem First.

                                    History of Claim

       Mr. Lunsford began working for Deem First on July 10, 2015. (Ex. 2.) On July
22, 2015, while working for Deem First, Mr. Lunsford fell through a false ceiling at a
Kroger remodeling worksite, hitting an industrial-sized meat cutter before falling to the
floor. (Ex. 1.) Mr. Lunsford received emergency treatment at Skyline Medical Center,
where he was diagnosed with multiple mandible fractures. (Ex. 4 at 6.) Mr. Lunsford
also underwent x-rays of his left knee, which were noted to be "unremarkable." (Ex. 5.)

       Mr. Lunsford elected to have his facial injuries treated at his home in Alabama, so
on July 24, 2015, he underwent surgery by Dr. Ryan Sheppard, DMD in Mobile,
Alabama. (Ex. 4 at 6.) Dr. Sheppard noted Mr. Lunsford's mandible was fractured in
three places and he sustained some damage to his teeth. Id. Dr. Sheppard elected to
perform open reduction/internal fixation surgery to hold the fractures in place with plates
and screws. !d. Mr. Lunsford recovered from the surgery, and Dr. Sheppard released
him on September 1, 2015, to return to work at full duty on September 15. (Ex. 4 at 12.)
However, on October 19, Dr. Sheppard wrote a letter stating that when he saw Mr.
Lunsford on October 2, he was suffering from an infection "due to his initial trauma,"
which required additional treatment. Therefore, he took Mr. Lunsford off work
retroactive to September 21 due to the "dangers ofhisjob." (Ex. 8.)

       Due to dental issues stemming from the injury, Dr. Sheppard recommended Mr.
Lunsford see Dr. Frank Kerbl, DMD. (Ex. 7 at 2.) Dr. Kerbl performed multiple root
canals due to injuries caused by the fall, with the last recorded visit occurring on
February 2, 2016. (Ex. 7 at 6.) On May 31, 2016, Dr. Sheppard provided a brief note
stating he had completed his treatment of Mr. Lunsford, but he recommended sending

                                            2
him to a physician to obtain an impairment rating. (Ex. 9.)

        With regard to Mr. Lunsford's back complaints, Dr. James West, an orthopedist,
evaluated Mr. Lunsford on September 9, 2015, regarding his complaints oflower thoracic
pain. (Ex. 6 at 1.) Mr. Lunsford did not choose Dr. West from a panel, but was referred
to him by a nurse case manager. (T.R. 5 at 3.) Dr. West ordered x-rays that revealed a
possible lower thoracic compression fracture and restricted him to lifting twenty pounds
or less pending an MRI. (Ex. 6 at 2.) The MRI revealed mild degenerative changes at T-
Il and T-12 as well as a posterior central disc herniation at L5-Sl, although the MRI was
incomplete at that level. (Ex. 6 at 5.) Dr. West recommended Mr. Lunsford attempt to
return to work without restrictions, but Deem First terminated him before he could do so.
(Ex. 6 at 7.)

        On October 23, Dr. West opined Mr. Lunsford's "lumbar symptoms" were more
related to his degenerative changes than to an "isolated work injury." (Ex. 6 at 9.) As a
result, he determined Mr. Lunsford was at MMI with regard to his back pain. /d. Deem
First later provided a panel of orthopedists from which Mr. Lunsford could choose
another physician for authorized care, but Mr. Lun ford objected to the panel because it
included Dr. West. He ha not chosen a physician from it. (T.R. 4.) 1

        Regarding Mr. Lunsford's wage rate, he only worked two full weeks prior to his
InJUry. (Ex. 2.) During that time, he averaged $1,064.25, which equated to a
compensation rate of $709.49. /d. Deem First provided a wage statement of a "like
employee," which only goes from January 18, 2015, through July 26, 2015. (Ex. 3.) The
check activity form attached to the wage statement showed the "like employee" worked
substantial overtime from June 28, 2015, until July 26, 2015. He worked substantially
fewer than forty hours per week in January 2015, while he averaged forty hours per week
during the months between January 25 and June 28. (Ex. 3 at 3.) Deem First calculated
the average weekly wage of the "like employee" to be $770.14 with a compensation rate
of $513.42. /d. Deem First paid temporary total disability benefits to Mr. Lunsford at the
rate of $400.00 until December 24, 2015, but acknowledged it would send him a check
for the admitted underpayment of $113.42 per week. (Ex. 10, T.R. 5.) Mr. Lunsford
asserted in his affidavit that he would never have worked for Deem First for the wages
reflected in the wage statement for the "like employee." (Ex. 1.)

       Mr. Lunsford contends he is entitled to additional temporary disability benefits at
a compensation rate reflected by his actual wages. He further contends he is entitled to
an evaluation to determine his permanent anatomical impairment from his facial injuries;
a panel of orthopedists to treat his left knee; and, another panel of back specialists that
does not include Dr. West. Deem First counters by arguing it has provided all benefits
required by Workers' Compensation Law.

    The parties did not provide a copy of the panel provided to Mr. Lunsford.

                                                            3
                       Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law

       The Court must interpret Workers' Compensation Law fairly, impartially, and by
basic principles of statutory construction, favoring neither the employee nor
employer. Tenn. Code Ann.§ 50-6-116 (2015). Mr. Lunsford has the burden of proof on
all essential elements of his claim. Scott v. Integrity Staffing Solutions, No. 2015-01-
0055, 2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 24, at *6 (Tenn. Workers' Comp. App. Bd.
Aug. 18, 2015).

       Mr. Lunsford need not prove every element of his claim by a preponderance of the
evidence in order to obtain relief at an expedited hearing. McCord v. Advantage Human
Resourcing, No. 2014-06-0063, 2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 6, at *7-8, 9
(Tenn. Workers' Comp. App. Bd. Mar. 27, 2015). At an expedited hearing, Mr. Lunsford
has the burden to come forward with sufficient evidence from which the trial court can
determine that he is likely to prevail at a hearing on the merits. !d.; see also Tenn. Code
Ann. § 50-6-239(d)(l )(20 15). This lesser evidentiary standard "does not relieve an
employee of the burden of producing evidence of an injury by accident that arose
primarily out of and in the course and scope of employment at an expedited hearing, but
allows some relief to be granted if that evidence does not rise to the level of a
'preponderance of the evidence."' Buchanan v. Car/ex Glass Co., No. 2015-01-0012,
2015 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 39, at *6 (Tenn. Workers' Comp. App. Bd. Sept.
29, 2015).

                            Medical Treatment for Left Knee

        Deem First asserted Mr. Lunsford failed to produce sufficient evidence to show he
is likely to prevail on the issue of causation regarding his alleged work-related left-knee
injury. In order to establish causation, an employee must prove "to a reasonable degree
of medical certainty that [the injury] contributed more than fifty percent (50%) in causing
the death, disablement or need for medical treatment, considering all causes." Tenn.
Code Ann. § 50-6-1 02( 14)(C) (20 15). The term "reasonable degree of medical certainty"
means that, "in the opinion of the physician, it is more likely than not considering all
causes, as opposed to speculation or possibility." Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-102(14)(D)
(2015). Thus, causation must be established by expert medical testimony, and it must be
more than "speculation or possibility" on the part of the doctor. !d.

        In this instance, the Court finds Mr. Lunsford failed to produce any expert medical
evidence linking his left knee complaints to his fall on July 22, 2015. However, an
employee does not have to prove compensability in order to establish entitlement to a
panel of physicians from which he may choose an authorized physician. McCord, supra,
at * 16, 17. In McCord, the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board found that:


                                            4
               [W]hether the alleged work accident resulted in a compensable
       injury has yet to be determined. Therefore, while Employee has not proven
       by a preponderance of the evidence that she suffered an injury arising
       primarily out of and in the course and scope of employment, she . has
       satisfied her burden at this interlocutory stage to support an Order
       compelling Employer to provide a panel of physicians.

!d. Thus, the question becomes whether Mr. Lunsford provided sufficient evidence of
entitlement to a panel of physicians to satisfy his "burden at this interlocutory stage." !d.
at * 17. The Court finds he has succeeded in doing so at this time.

       Mr. Lunsford unquestionably fell from a height of more than ten feet onto an
industrial-sized meat cutter, sustaining serious injuries to his face. Although suffering
multiple injuries, he also made sufficient complaints regarding his left knee that x-rays
were taken at the emergency room immediately following the accident. (Ex. 5.) While
the x-rays were "unremarkable," such a report is insufficient to determine whether Mr.
Lunsford sustained any actual injury to his left knee as a result of his fall, given that he
has not been given an opportunity to treat with a physician selected from a panel as
required by Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204(3)(A)(i) (2015). Therefore, the
Court finds Mr. Lunsford is likely to prevail at a hearing on the merits regarding the issue
of additional medical care for his left knee and holds Deem First must provide a panel of
orthopedic specialists from which he may choose an authorized physician in accordance
with Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204(3)(A)(i) (2015).

               Physician/or Evaluation oflmpairmentfor Facial Injuries

       The medical records reveal Mr. Lunsford suffered multiple fractures to his jaw
that required plates and screws to repair, as well as serious injuries to his teeth, causing
him to undergo multiple root canals. (Exs. 4, 5.) On May 31, 2016, Dr. Sheppard
released Mr. Lunsford from medical care for the injuries to his jaw and teeth; however,
he opined another physician should evaluate him "for an impairment rating." (Ex. 9.)
Deem First's justification for failing to do so is that, based on counsel's review of the
AMA Guides, 6th ed., there is not a method to calculate an impairment due to a jaw
fracture. (T.R. 5 at 2.)

       Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204(k)(l) (2015) provides that
impairment ratings should be assigned by the treating physician or chiropractor.
(Emphasis added.) In this in tance the treating physician is a doctor from Alabama,
perhaps unfamiliar with the AMA Guides, 6111 edition; however, he has expressly opined a
doctor competent to do so should evaluate Mr. Lunsford for a permanent impairment
rating. (Ex. 9.) Furthermore, the Court finds Deem First's argument that the AMA
Guides do not provide an impairment rating for the injury in question to be without merit.
Chapter 11.3 of the AMA Guides, 6th edition deals specifically with impairments due to

                                             5
facial injuries. Even if the AMA Guides did not contain a method for evaluating an
impairment due to an injury similar to the one suffered by Mr. Lunsford, Tennessee Code
Annotated section 50-6-204(k)(2)(C) (2015) provides that, "in cases not covered by the
AMA guides, an impairment rating by any appropriate method used and accepted by the
medical community" is acceptable. Our Appeals Board has found judges, and by
implication attorneys, "are not well-suited to second-guess a medical expert's treatment,
recommendations, and/or diagnoses absent some conflicting medical evidence or some
other countervailing evidence properly admitted into the record." Scott, at *8. Deem
First cannot argue its interpretation of the AMA Guides precludes referral for an
evaluation by an authorized physician. Therefore, the Court finds Deem First is obligated
to provide a panel of specialists from which Mr. Lunsford may choose a physician for the
evaluation of any permanent impairment he may retain as a result of his work-related
lll]Ury.


                      Panel for Mr. Lunsford's Alleged Back Injury

       According to the record, Deem First did not provide Mr. Lunsford a panel of
specialists for evaluation of his back complaints, but instead a nurse case manager
referred him to Dr. West. (T.R. 5 at 3.) Deem First later provided a panel of specialists
to Mr. Lunsford for additional treatment, which included Dr. West. Mr. Lunsford insists
the panel is invalid because it did not replace Dr. West with another specialist. (T.R. 4.)

       Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204(3)(A)(i) (2015) provides that the
employer shall provide a panel of three physicians from which the employee may select a
treating physician. Although Deem First initially failed to do so, it has done so now.
(T.R. 6.) While Mr. Lunsford asserts the panel is invalid because it includes Dr. West, he
cites no authority for this proposition, and the Court is unaware of any. Therefore, the
Court finds the panel provided by Deem First that includes Dr. West is valid, and Mr.
Lunsford must choose a physician from this panel should he desire additional authorized
treatment pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204 (2015).

                   Calculation of Mr. Lunsford's Compensation Rate

      Mr. Lunsford only worked for Deem First for two full weeks prior to his injury.
During that time, he worked substantial overtime, making an average of $1,064.25 per
week. (Ex. 2.) Deem First provided a wage statement asserted to be of a "like
employee," which notes an average weekly wage of $770.14. Based on this wage
statement, Deem First paid temporary total disability benefits at a compensation rate of
$513.42. Mr. Lunsford insists his actual wages should be used in calculating his
compensation rate given that he anticipated making this amount in the future and he
would not have agreed to work for Deem First for the wages recorded for the "like
employee." (T.R. 4.)


                                            6
       Workers' Compensation Law has firmly established that an employee's
compensation rate must be based on past earnings and not what an employee may earn in
the future. Armstrong v. Spears, 393 S.W.2d 729 (Tenn. 1965). Therefore, Mr.
Lunsford's intentions regarding the wages he may have earned had he not been injured
are not relevant to this inquiry. !d.

        Furthermore, in this instance, the Court finds it is impracticable to use Mr.
Lunsford's actual pre-injury wages to calculate his compensation rate. Not only did Mr.
Lunsford only work two full weeks, it is clear from his wage statement, as well as that of
the "like employee," that his wages would have varied weekly depending on the overtime
wages he received. (Exs. 1, 2.) However, Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-
102(3)(C) provides a solution to this issue:

           Where, by reason of the shortness of the time during which the employee
           has been in the employment of the employer, it is impracticable to compute
           the average weekly wages as defined in this subdivision (3 ), regard shall be
           had to the average weekly amount that, during the first fifty-two (52) weeks
           prior to the injury or death, was being earned by a person in the same
           grade, employed at the same work by the same employer[.]

(Emphasis added.)

       While the Court finds the wages of a similar employee is the most practicable way
to determine Mr. Lunsford's compensation rate, the wage statement provided by Deem
First does not comply with the statute in that it only provides wages for the twenty-eight
weeks prior to Mr. Lunsford's injury. (Ex. 2.) The discrepancy is further exacerbated by
the fact that the wage statement does not include wages earned during the summer, which
as indicated by the wages earned during the weeks just prior to the injury, may have been
substantially supplemented by overtime pay. (Exs. 1, 2.) Thus, Deem First shall provide
a wage statement of a "like employee" that fully complies with Tennessee Code
Annotated section 50-6-102(3)(C) (2015) to calculate Mr. Lunsford's compensation rate.

                          Payment of Past Temporary Total Disability Benefits

       Mr. Lunsford seeks additional temporary total disability benefits through the
present based on Dr. Sheppard's statement on October 19, 2015, that he was placing Mr.
Lunsford "on leave again retroactive to 9/21120 15" due to an infection that arose
following his injury. (Ex. 8.) There is nothing else in the record wherein Dr. Sheppard
further addressed the issue of leave or restrictions. Deem First asserted, and Mr.
Lunsford did not dispute, that it paid temporary total disability benefits from July 23,
2015, until December 24, 2015. 2 (Ex. 10). With respect to temporary total disability

2
    Neither party provided the reason for termination of benefits on December 24, 2015.

                                                           7
benefits, an employee must prove (1) total disability from working as the result of a
compensable injury; (2) a causal connection between the injury and the inability to work;
and (3) the duration of the period of disability. Shepherd v. Haren Const. Co., Inc., et al.,
No. 2015-01-0325, 2016 TN Wrk. Comp. App. Bd. LEXIS 15, at *13 (Tenn. Workers'
Comp. App. Bd. Mar. 30, 2016). In this instance, the Court finds Mr. Lunsford has yet to
establish that he is likely to prevail on the issue that his period of disability extended
beyond December 24, 2015, the last date Deem First paid temporary total disability
benefits. (Ex. 10.) Therefore, Deem First is not obligated to pay Mr. Lunsford any
additional temporary total disability benefits at this time.

       IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that:

1.     Deem First shall provide Mr. Lunsford with a panel of specialists from which he
       may choose an authorized physician for treatment of his left knee in accordance
       with Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-204 (2015).

2.     Deem First shall provide Mr. Lunsford with a panel of specialists from which he
       may choose an authorized physician to provide an evaluation of his facial injuries
       for the purpose of determining what, if any, permanent disability he may retain as
       a result of the injury.

3.    Deem First is not obligated to replace Dr. West on the panel it provided Mr.
      Lunsford with regard to further treatment for his lower back complaints.

4.    Deem First shall provide a wage statement of a similar employee in compliance
      with Tennessee Code Annotated section 50-6-102(3)(C) (2015) recording wages
      for fifty-two weeks prior to Mr. Lunsford's injury from which Mr. Lunsford's
      compensation rate for this clam shall be calculated.

5.    Deem First is not obligated to pay Mr. Lunsford temporary total disability benefits
      for any time beyond December 24, 2015, at this time.

6.    This matter is set for an Initial Hearing on November 15, 2016, at 2:30p.m. C.S.T.

7.    Unless interlocutory appeal of the Expedited Hearing Order is filed,
      compliance with this Order must occur no later than seven business days
      from the date of entry of this Order as required by Tennessee Code
      Annotated section 50-6-239(d)(3) (2015).   The Insurer or Self-Insured
