KOZIOL, J. The self-insurer appeals from a hearing decision allowing the employee’s claim for post lump sum settlement medical benefits, and ordering it to pay benefits pursuant to §§ 13 and 30 for “reasonable and related medical expenses to include pain management and [radio frequency ablations, (RFAs)] per Dr. Feliz,” (Dec. 8.) The self-insurer asserts on appeal that the judge erred by failing to discuss the terms of the lump sum settlement and address its defense that the lump sum settlement barred the employee’s claim. We affirm the judge’s decision.
