Nathanson v. Department of Labor and Employment Security, Division of Workers' Compensation
18 FLW D1491, June 22, 1993
Division of Workers' Compensation sought a utilization review of doctor's care that was provided to six claimants. A subpoena duces tecum was issued requesting complete copies of the medical records on the claimants. Doctor objected to the production of this information. Court ruled that there is no requirement to hold an evidentiary hearing when the physician contested the validity of the subpoena duces tecum which was served as a part of the investigation for utilization review of care which physician provided to the claimants. The circuit court has exclusive jurisdiction for enforcement of proceedings regarding the administrative subpoena. Section 120.57(4) provides that Section 120.57 is not applicable to investigative proceedings. Moreover, Section 120.58(2) provides that the decision of the agency on a Motion to Quash will not be a proposed agency action governed by Section 120.57.
