The medical director at North Dakota’s workers’ compensation agency has resigned.
KXMB-TV reports that Luis Vilella stepped down on Aug. 15 after eight years with Workforce Safety and Insurance.
Vilella has complained in the past that his medical opinions take a back seat to the legal process.
WSI Deputy Director Clare Carlson confirmed Vilella’s departure but said he can’t comment on personnel matters. A listed telephone number for Vilella could not be found.
