Have You Been Overpaid Workers Compensation Benefits?

Legislation concerning the overpayment of workers’ compensation benefits in the state of Colorado may affect you. According to House Bill 21-1207, “the act defines ‘overpayments’ of workers' compensation benefits as money received by a claimant that:

• Is a result of fraud;
• Is the result of an error due only to miscalculation, omission, or clerical error asserted in a new admission of liability;
• Is paid in error or in excess of an admission or order that exists at the time that the benefits are paid to a claimant; or
• Results in duplicate benefits as specified in the act.”
