Nebraska LB1011 amends workers' compensation rules for temporary disability, including notice periods and independent medical examiners.

Nebraska LB1011 modifies the Nebraska Workers' Compensation Act by changing provisions for temporary disability compensation. It mandates that compensation for temporary disability ceases only after the employee receives thirty days' notice. Employers must provide evidence used to determine the cessation of benefits. Employees can request an independent medical examiner, chosen by the employee, if the employer uses external evidence. The bill repeals the original section and replaces it with new provisions.
