A Pennsylvania appellate court recently held the cost of massage therapy services provided by a licensed practical nurse that had been prescribed by claimant’s treating physician must be paid by the employer or carrier since the LPN was a “health care provider” under the state’s Workers’ Compensation Act [77 Pa. Stat. Ann. § 29]. The court found that an earlier case, Boleratz v. WCAB (Airgas, Inc.), 932 A.2d 1014 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2007), where the therapist was not licensed as a health care provider, was not dispositive.
