Current Bill Summary

SB 929 - This act bars the reduction in compensation or death benefit, in a workers' compensation claim, to be taken out of payments to health care providers for services relating to the injury. The reduction must be made from the total death and disability compensation. The health care provider may not pursue the employee to collect any unpaid fees or charges until a determination of a reduction is made.
