This is a claim under the workmen’s compensation act for compensation for services rendered by a physician in treating an employee for injuries received by him arising out of and in the course of his employment. The facts disclosed by •the record are that arrangements had been made with a hospital to furnish to employees of the insured, injured in the course of their work, necessary medical and surgical treatment, and that notices to this effect were posted conspicuously in different places
The notices posted in the manufactory of the employer were amply sufficient. They gave the name and location of the hospital where both “medical and hospital attendance” were furnished for injured employees. The decision of the Industrial Accident Board to the effect that the insurer was not liable to the physician selected by the employee was plainly right. The insurer had done all that the act required of it in providing reasonable medical attendance. Panasuk’s Case, 217 Mass. 589. Pecott’s Case, 223 Mass. 546.
Decree affirmed.
