Subject Numbers Regarding Health Provider Authorizations
Authorization No. C06419-8W
May 22, 2019
Pursuant to Workers' Compensation Law Section 13-l(12), the Chair of the New York State Workers' Compensation Board has exercised her authority to temporarily suspend Dr. Mary Elizabeth Love’s authorization to treat injured workers within the New York State workers’ compensation system effective May 22, 2019. Dr. Love's last known business address is:
9 Meadow Valley Drive
Ballston Lake, New York 12065
The Chair’s designee’s investigation has revealed that the New York State Education Department, Office of Professional Discipline, State Board for Chiropractic issued a Consent Order pursuant to which Dr. Love admitted guilt to one specification of professional misconduct: being convicted of committing an act constituting a crime under New York State law (Driving While Intoxicated).
Therefore, the Chair believes that Dr. Love may be guilty of misconduct, and that such misconduct would detrimentally affect the quality of care provided to injured workers.
Dr. Love is prohibited from rendering treatment and care to injured workers and from conducting reviews of records regarding variance requests pursuant to 12 NYCRR § 324.3(b)(2)(ii)(a) while her authorization is temporarily suspended. Reports submitted by Dr. Love for services rendered prior to May 22, 2019, are valid, but are invalid for any services rendered on or after that date. Requests to cross-examine Dr. Love for services rendered prior to May 22, 2019, should not be denied due to the suspension of her authorization.
This suspension remains in effect until further notice. Any questions regarding the authorized lists should be referred to the Medical Director’s Office at 1 (800) 781-2362.
Clarissa M. Rodriguez
Chair
