CompFox AI Summary

The Board granted reconsideration, amending the original award to limit the payment for the interferential muscle stimulator (IMS) device and supplies. Initially, the Administrative Law Judge found the device necessary for the entire period claimed, but upon reviewing Dr. Wolfer's note, the Board limited coverage to November 19, 2005, to January 30, 2006. This amendment reflects that the IMS device was deemed necessary for the industrial injury only during this specific timeframe.
