Before LOGUE, HENDON and LOBREE, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

Insurer, United Automobile Insurance Company, challenges a final summary judgment entered in favor of appellee, Millennium Radiology, LLC, in a first-party personal injury protection action. On appeal United Auto argues the "identity of the parties" element of collateral estoppel is not satisfied where the assignees and medical providers are identical but the insured or assignor is different. Recognizing that the trial court did not have the benefit of our decision in United Automobile Insurance Co. v. Millennium Radiology, LLC, 337 So. 3d 834 (Fla. 3d DCA Jan. 12, 2022), at the time judgment was rendered, we agree. Accordingly, we reverse and remand the order under review.

Reversed and remanded.
