LONG, J.  The employee appeals from a remand decision awarding her § 35 partial incapacity benefits from January 4, 2010, and continuing, based on a left ulnar neuropathy sustained on June 13, 2007, § 30 benefits for the ulnar neuropathy, and § 30 medical benefits for cervical and thoracic spine injuries sustained on the same date.  The decision also established liability for a cervical injury on April 6, 2006, and denied and dismissed all other claims, including those arising from the additional alleged dates of injury. 

¹  The Department’s Case Management System (CMS) has Liberty Mutual Insurance Company listed as the insurer for this board number for the alleged November 19, 2003, date of injury.  However, the hearing decision notes that counsel for the self-insurer confirmed that Liberty Mutual was the claims administrator for the self-insured, not an insurer.  (Dec. 1 n. 1.)
