This case concerns Jose Facundo-Guerrero's workers' compensation claim for injuries sustained on February 24, 2005. The primary issue is whether the statutory limit of 24 chiropractic treatments applies, as the applicant had already received more than this number before his claim was accepted. The Appeals Board granted reconsideration and affirmed the Administrative Law Judge's decision that the 24-visit limit under Labor Code section 4604.5(d)(1) applies to this injury date, denying further chiropractic treatment visits beyond the cap but allowing for visits necessary for managing his care.
