Disputed Workers' Compensation Board Claims. If an employee covered by the Welfare Plan suffers a disability, payment for which is in dispute with the Workers' Compensation Board, weekly indemnity payments under the Welfare Plan will be paid retroactively as set forth in this Exhibit if requested by the employee and provided he has been off work for at least two (2) weeks due to the disability without the Workers' Compensation Board having accepted the claim. In cases where the W.C.B. has accepted a claim for medical costs but there is a dispute existing over time loss benefits, weekly indemnity payments under the Welfare Plan will be available after an independent medical by a physician of the insurance carrier's choice has confirmed the employee's disability. If the Workers' Compensation Board claim is subsequently established the employee will then repay the weekly disability payment received to the appropriate fund or insurance company.
