| 3. Subrogation. Any insurer determined to be liable for |
benefits under subsection 2 must be subrogated to the employee's |
rights under this Act for all benefits the insurer has paid and |
for which another insurer may be liable for any injury occurring |
before January 1, 1993. Any such insurer may, in accordance with |
rules adopted by the Superintendent of Insurance, file a request |
for appointment of an arbitrator to determine apportionment of |
liability among the responsible insurers. The arbitrator's |
decision is limited to a choice between the submissions of the |
parties and may not be calculated by averaging. Within 30 days |
of the request, the Superintendent of Insurance shall appoint a |
neutral arbitrator who shall decide, in accordance with the rules |
adopted by the Superintendent of Insurance, respective liability |
among or between insurers. Arbitration pursuant to this |
subsection is the exclusive means for resolving apportionment |
disputes among insurers and the decision of the arbitrator is |
conclusive and binding among all parties involved. Apportionment |
decisions made under this subsection may not affect an employee's |
rights and benefits under this Act. |
