Revise workers' compensation insurance related to who may receive payments

This bill updates Montana's workers' compensation laws to clarify who can receive payments on behalf of minors and individuals adjudged incompetent. It allows a workers' compensation judge to appoint a benefits administrator to manage these payments and pursue claims for vulnerable claimants. The legislation also establishes a two-year deadline for filing disputes about benefits and clarifies that a judge can appoint an administrator without first going through standard dispute resolution steps. These changes primarily affect employers, insurers, and the workers' compensation department by defining the proper recipients of payments and the process for appointing representatives for those unable to manage their own benefits.
