An Act relative to insurance settlements

Summary

The bill amends the workers’ compensation law to require insurers to send a written notice to the employer when proposing a lump‑sum settlement. The employer has 30 days to consent in writing or object in writing; if the employer does not respond, consent is deemed unnecessary, but the insurer must file an affidavit confirming the notice and lack of objection.
