§ 71-3-66. Confidentiality of records.
 

The noncontroverted case medical reports, rehabilitation counselor reports and psychological reports of the commission, insofar as they refer to accidents, injuries and settlements, shall not be open to the public under the Mississippi Public Records Act of 1983, but only to the parties satisfying the commission of their interest in such records and the right to inspect them. Under such reasonable rules and regulations as the commission may adopt, the records of the commission as to any employee in any previous case in which such employee was a claimant shall be open to and made available to such claim to an employer or its insurance carrier which is called upon to pay compensation, medical expenses and/or funeral expenses, or to any party at interest, except that the commission may make such reasonable charge as it deems proper for furnishing information by mail and for copies of records.
