7 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 3 costs, 1 mixed.
The insurer’s take from your third‑party recovery is capped. It is the lesser of: (a) the lien amount minus one‑half of your reasonable, itemized costs, or (b) one‑third of the total amount recovered minus one‑half of those costs. Total recovered includes attorney fees, case costs, and any non‑cash items valued on the date the deal is signed. You must give a verified, itemized cost memo; a judge can review it if asked within 30 days. If the insurer collects more than it paid or owes, the extra money is paid to you or your dependents.
If you get money from someone other than your employer for a work injury, your workers’ compensation is reduced by that amount. If your employer pays you for that injury, your compensation is also reduced dollar‑for‑dollar, including future checks. Money you get from your employer’s uninsured or underinsured motorist policy also reduces your workers’ comp. These rules prevent double payment for the same injury.
When a private workers’ comp carrier recovers money from a third party on a claim, your premium account gets a credit. The credit equals the recovery minus the carrier’s share of legal costs, capped at the compensation the carrier paid or reserved on that claim. This lowers your workers’ comp premium bill.
When you get workers’ compensation, the insurer or Administrator can sue the person who caused your injury and use your legal rights to recover. They have a lien on the total proceeds of any third‑party recovery and on amounts your employer paid for the injury. The lien covers the insurer’s total compensation expenditures for you and your dependents. This can reduce what you keep from a settlement or judgment.
After you recover money from a third party, the insurer can reduce only non‑accident benefit payments. Each payment can be cut by no more than one‑third of what would be owed. Reductions continue payment by payment until the total taken equals your net amount recovered. Net amount recovered means your total recovery minus the insurer’s allowed share and your attorney’s fees.
You or your lawyer must notify the insurer or Administrator in writing before filing a third‑party lawsuit. If you receive settlement or judgment money, you must notify and pay the amount due within 15 days, with an itemized distribution. Your lawyer and the third‑party insurer are jointly responsible if they knew of the lien. Juries are told not to subtract workers’ comp from damages, and repayment happens after any award. Insurers cannot sell a lien unless you or your lawyer refuse to provide information about the third‑party action.
The insurer or Administrator may seek proceeds under your employer’s uninsured/underinsured motorist policy, but not from a policy you bought for yourself. Any employer auto policy term that limits your right to recover, limits subrogation, or excludes coverage to benefit the insurer is void. The law also defines which insurers count as “third‑party insurers,” including an employer’s UM/UIM carrier when its proceeds are recoverable.
