The Kentucky House is now considering HB 2, which was introduced on February 12, 2018. The bill seeks to limit duration of payment of medical benefits, shift the burden of proof to claimants for establishing the proximate cause of intoxication, extend the statute of limitations on cumulative trauma claims, increase attorney fees, offset TTD paid by gross income during a period of light duty or alternative work, extend termination of benefits to age 67 and require a minimum of one year employment for hearing loss claims, among other changes.
