CompFox AI Summary
The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration to amend a previous award. The Board found that applicant Janet Riley's January 5, 2011 stroke was a compensable consequence of her admitted industrial cumulative trauma injury to her internal and psyche. However, the Board deferred the issue of temporary total disability, citing insufficient medical evidence to establish the specific period of disability. The original award of temporary disability indemnity and further medical treatment was modified to reflect these decisions.
