Allows employees to waive release of medical records under Nebraska Workers' Compensation Act.
Nebraska LB456 amends the Nebraska Workers' Compensation Act to allow employees to waive the release of their medical records to employers or insurers, except for mental health injuries or substance abuse claims. The compensation court must create a waiver form. Failure to provide a waiver delays liability. The bill also outlines procedures for the Attorney General to address insurer misconduct and allows the compensation court to suspend or revoke insurer licenses for repeated violations.
