Benefits in case of injury or death
An assisting political subdivision shall provide its officers who respond, under this chapter, to an emergency in a requesting political subdivision and who, during the response, are injured or die in the state of the requesting political subdivision with the same death benefits and compensation, including workers’ compensation, that the officers would be entitled to if the emergency and response had occurred in the assisting political subdivision.
