Background: The Black Lung Benefits Act of 1977 as amended, 20 U.S.C. 901 et seq. and 20 CFR 718.102 set forth criteria for the administration and interpretation of x-rays. When a miner applies for benefits, the Division of Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation (DCMWC) is required to schedule a series of four diagnostic tests to help establish eligibility for black lung benefits. Each of the diagnostic tests has its own form that sets forth the medical results. The forms are: Roentgenographic Interpretation (CM– 933), Roentgenographic Quality Rereading (CM–933b), Medical History and Examination for Coal Mine Workers’ Pneumoconiosis (CM–988), Report of Arterial Blood Gas Study (CM–1159), and Report of Ventilatory Study (CM–2907).
