Iowa Admin. Code r. 876-6.5 - Statement of awareness
When a petition for settlement under Iowa Code section 85.35(3) or commutation is submitted, it shall contain or be accompanied by a verified statement from the injured employee indicating awareness that, upon approval by the workers' compensation commissioner of the settlement or commutation, a final bar to future claims or benefits under the Iowa workers' compensation law for such injury shall exist except as specifically reserved in any agreement.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 85.35, 85.45, and 85.47.
