Article 4 - (Volunteer Ambulance Workers' Benefit) PROCEDURE
42 - Reports of injuries, claims and proceedings.

 42. Reports of injuries, claims and proceedings. If an injury is one
  for  which  an  insurance  carrier  might  be liable under a contract of
  insurance or a county plan of self-insurance might be required  to  pay,
  the  officer  to  whom a notice of injury is required to be delivered or
  mailed and with whom the claim in relation to such injury is required to
  be filed under the provisions of this chapter shall send a copy of  such
  notice and claim and a copy of any notice of a proceeding relating to an
  injury   or   claim   to  such  insurance  carrier  or  county  plan  of
  self-insurance, as the case may be, promptly after receiving  the  same.
  The  political subdivision or volunteer ambulance company liable for the
  payment of benefits under this chapter shall keep such records and  make
  such  reports  to  the  chairman  of  the workers' compensation board as
  required by section one hundred ten of the  workers'  compensation  law,
  which  by section fifty-seven of this article is made applicable to this
  chapter. Failure to comply with the provisions of this section shall not
  relieve such an insurance carrier of  liability  or  a  county  plan  of
  self-insurance from its obligation to pay.
