receive workers' compensation under the provisions of this chapter or of
any other law, or volunteer firefighters' benefits or volunteer
ambulance workers' benefits under the provisions of the volunteer
firefighters' benefit law or the volunteer ambulance workers' benefit
law or of any other law, or if the disabled civil defense volunteer or
