The Appeals Panel affirmed the ALJ’s determinations on extent of injury, MMI, and impairment rating, concluding that the compensable injury did not extend to the claimed cervical spine conditions, that the claimant reached MMI on June 16, 2016, and that the correct impairment rating was five percent. The Panel reformed the decision to correct the name of the self-insured’s registered agent for service of process.
