WILSON, J. The employee appeals the decision of an administrative judge in which his claim for weekly incapacity benefits was denied and dismissed. The employee argues that the judge erred by disregarding parts of the medical opinion of the §11A physician. We agree that the judge’s explanation for his rejection of the prima facie opinion is inadequate and recommittal is appropriate. G. L. c. 152, §11C.
