Ron and Jen met with the executive board, including Trooper agents for all districts throughout the state to speak about complex issues that Minnesota State Troopers face when they are dealing with an injury sustained in the line of duty. Topics included the types of benefits available to Minnesota State Troopers who are injured in the line of duty, including workers' compensation, MSRS State Patrol Plan Duty Disability Benefits, Continuation of Health Insurance Benefits under Minn. Stat § 299A.465, and third-party claims in the case of on-duty car accidents. Ron and Jen also presented information regarding post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and law enforcement, and the new work comp rules that govern PTSD claims, as well as complex coordination rules that apply specifically to State Troopers who receive Duty Disability and workers’ compensation. Ron and Jen fielded dozens of great questions from the Troopers in attendance regarding coordination of benefits, timing of filing for benefits, and PTSD claims.
