  •    (a) This rule identifies the Class 3 preexisting excludable conditions which, under IC 36-8-8-13.5 and IC 36-8-8-13.6, make members of the 1977 Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension and Disability Fund (Fund) ineligible under certain circumstances for the Class 3 impairment benefits established in IC 36-8-8-13.5(e).

      (b) The purpose of this rule is to permit the continued development and administration of the Fund in accordance with accepted principles of risk assessment.
