D. ARTHUR KELSEY, Judge.

In this case, the Virginia Workers' Compensation Commission enforced a reimbursement guideline issued by the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Program and denied a request by the claimants for reimbursement of covered expenses. We reverse, finding the Program's guideline cannot be justified under the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Act, Code § 38.2-5000 et seq.
