Modifies provisions relating to supplemental workers' compensation insurance for volunteer firefighters

HB 2681 allows volunteer fire departments, counties, municipalities, or groups of employers to purchase supplemental workers' compensation insurance for volunteer firefighters injured while on duty. This supplemental coverage provides additional payments beyond standard workers' compensation benefits, including temporary disability payments. Entities already self-insuring their workers' compensation (like volunteer fire departments) may optionally fund this coverage through their existing self-insurance plans or use general tax revenues not designated for other purposes. The bill modifies existing rules to clarify how this optional supplemental coverage can be arranged and paid for.
