CONCURRING OPINION BY SENIOR JUDGE LEADBETTER Because I believe that Stermel v. Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board (City of Philadelphia), 103 A.3d 876, 878 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2014) was wrongly decided, I must concur in the result only. I believe the City should be able to pursue subrogation for two-thirds of its Heart and Lung payments, the amounts attributable to Workers’ Compensation pursuant to its Notice of Compensation Payable, and not be penalized in this regard simply because it is self-insured.
