Opinion

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.

* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
