The election constitutes an assumption by the employer of workers' compensation liability for the proprietor, limited liability company member, or partner for the time period in which the insurance contract is in force. The proprietor, limited liability company member, or partner shall accept compensation in the manner provided by the workers' compensation law and the employer is relieved from any other liability for recovery of damages, or other compensation for injury.
