subrogation to recover any payments made for injury to an employee

subrogation in individual cases when the exercise of the right of
subrogation would create an extreme financial hardship on the

paid.

submitting claims to the Authority, the claims may be denied by the
Authority. If claims are submitted and paid after the employee or
dependent has released the responsible party, the Authority shall be
entitled to bring an action against the employee, dependent, or
