Persons desiring to examine a file maintained by the division or office shall present a written authorization to inspect the file to designated personnel of the division or office. Files are generally reviewed at the division, except when the file is in paper form only and located at the office. Files examined at the division are subject to the requirements of part 5220.2880. The authorization must be signed and dated by a party to the claim who is either the employee, the employer, the insurer, a dependent in death cases, or a legal guardian in cases of mental or physical incapacity. The authorization must specify the person or party authorized to review the file. The authorization is placed in and becomes part of the file.
This part does not grant greater access to the files than that given by the Minnesota Data Privacy Act or the Workers' Compensation Act.
