A.R.S. § 23-953: Notice of award; effect of petition for hearing or appeal; overpayment

When a notice is issued by an insurance carrier or a self-insured employer of an award for permanent compensation benefits pursuant to section 23-1044, subsection B, these benefits shall be paid as provided in the notice of award and shall not be interrupted if there is a petition for a hearing or an appeal to a higher court. Any resulting overpayment of these benefits shall be credited against any future liability for compensation benefits that may arise out of the same claim.
