FABRICANT, J. The parties cross-appeal from a decision denying and dismissing the employee’s claim for reimbursement of §§ 13 and 30 medical benefits, paid by MassHealth and/or Medicare for medical treatment after January 31, 2007, due to her lack of standing. Despite the dismissal of the employee’s claim, the judge also found that claims for reimbursement of the benefits in question were not foreclosed by the terms of the parties’ lump sum settlement agreement, approved on February 9, 2009. We reverse the order of dismissal due to lack of standing, and recommit for further findings on causal relationship.
