Lien of workers’ compensation awards for insurers. Claimant is barred by prohibitions against double recovery from collecting for expenses paid by his private health carrier when the injury is found to be compensable. The health carrier may establish a lien under § 38-174n for reimbursement of expenses paid for a compensable injury. Supreme Court then reversed Appellate Court ruling.
