The plaintiff appeals from the judgment of the trial court granting the defendant’s motion for summary judgment. The plaintiff claims that the trial court improperly (1) granted the defendant’s motion to reargue its original motion for summary judgment and (2) determined that § 1 (f) of Public Acts 1993, No. 93-297 (P.A. 93-297), codified at General Statutes (Rev. to 1995) § 38a-336 (f), did not permit her to claim underinsured motorist benefits under her employer’s insurance policy with the defendant. The second issue, which is dispositive, was decided by our Supreme Court in Reliance Ins. Co. v. American Casualty Co. of Reading, Pennsylvania, 238 Conn. 285, 679 A.2d 925 (1996), after oral argument in this case. In accordance with this decision, we reverse the judgment of the trial court.1

The following allegations made by the plaintiff in her May 20, 1994 complaint are relevant to our resolution of this appeal. On October 16, 1992, the plaintiff was operating a motor vehicle owned by her employer, Willow Brook Shopper, Inc., when a vehicle operated by Donna Dumont collided with her car. The plaintiff suffered injuries and brought a claim for damages against Dumont. The plaintiff received compensation that exhausted the automobile liability coverage of Dumont’s insurance, but did not fully compensate the plaintiff for her injuries. The defendant, Hartford Casualty Insurance Company, refused to pay the plaintiff underinsured motorist benefits pursuant to her employer’s insurance policy.

*3On March 20, 1994, the defendant filed a motion for summary judgment2 arguing that General Statutes (Rev. to 1995) § 31-284 (a) precluded the plaintiffs claim for underinsured motorist benefits. The plaintiff objected on the ground that by enacting P.A. 93-297, § 1 (1), the legislature intended to allow persons injured in the course of their employment to seek underinsured motorist benefits under their employer’s insurance policies. On April 19,1995, the trial court denied the motion for summary judgment.

On June 8, 1995, the defendant filed a motion to reargue its motion for summary judgment. The defendant argued that “it appears that the trial court’s attention was not directed to the fact that P.A. 93-297 brought about a substantive change in the law that could not be applied retroactively. Moreover, P.A. 93-297 affirmatively provided that the amendment to the statute was to apply to acts or omissions occurring on or after January 1, 1994.” The plaintiff objected, arguing that pursuant to Practice Book § 204B, a motion to reargue must be filed within twenty days of the issuance of the notice of a decision. The plaintiff further asserted that the court had not improperly denied the motion for summary judgment.

On June 26,1995, the trial court reversed itself, vacating its original order and granting the defendant’s motion for summary judgment. The court determined that P.A. 93-297, § 1 (f), applied only to acts or omissions occurring on or after January 1, 1994.3

*4The plaintiff claims that pursuant to P.A. 93-297, § 1 (f), she may recover underinsured motorist benefits under her employer’s insurance policy. She argues that the legislative history of the statute demonstrates that the act was intended to abrogate the harsh results of the workers’ compensation exclusivity provision.* **4 Section 31-284 (a) provides in relevant part: “An employer shall not be hable to any action for damages on account of personal injury sustained by an employee arising out of and in the course of his employment . . . .” In CNA Ins. Co. v. Colman, 222 Conn. 769, 773, 610 A.2d 1257 (1992), our Supreme Court held that under the Workers’ Compensation Act, an “employer is insulated from bearing any costs arising out of workplace injuries in excess of those provided by worker’s compensation.” (Emphasis in original.) An employee “who can receive workers’ compensation benefits is therefore barred from collecting under his employer’s uninsured motorist coverage.” Id., 774; see also Bouley v. Norwich, 222 Conn. 744, 610 A.2d 1245 (1992).5

Public Act 93-297, § 1 (f), enacted after CNA Ins. Co. v. Colman, supra, 222 Conn. 769, provides: “Notwithstanding subsection (a) of section 31-284, an employee *5of a named insured injured while occupying a covered motor vehicle in the course of employment shall be covered by such insured’s otherwise applicable uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage.” While P.A. 93-297, § 1 (f), clearly overrules CNA Ins. Co., the issue is whether the statutory amendment applies to the plaintiffs particular circumstances. P.A. 93-297, § 29, provides that “[§] 1 . . . shall be applicable to acts or omissions occurring on or after January 1, 1994.” Notwithstanding the specific language of § 29,6 7however, our Supreme Court held in Reliance Ins. Co J that an examination of legislative history revealed that “P.A. 93-297 was intended to be clarifying legislation and, as such, must be accepted as a declaration of the legislature’s original intent pertaining to the interplay between the uninsured motorist provisions of General Statutes § 38a-336 and the workers’ compensation exclusivity provision of General Statutes § 31-284. . . . Consequently, we conclude that an employee is not barred from recovering uninsured motorist coverage benefits against his or her employer’s insurer in regard to a motor vehicle accident that occurred prior to the effective date of P.A. 93-297.” (Citation omitted.)

“As an intermediate appellate court, we must follow the precedent of our Supreme Court .... Burton v. Planning Commission, 13 Conn. App. 400, 409, 536 A.2d 995 (1988), aff'd, 209 Conn. 609, 553 A.2d 161 (1989).” (Internal quotation marks omitted.) State v. Zoravali, 34 Conn. App. 428, 440 n.10, 641 A.2d 796, cert. denied, 230 Conn. 906, 644 A.2d 921 (1994).

*6The judgment is reversed and the case is remanded with direction to deny the defendant’s motion for summary judgment, and for further proceedings.

In this opinion the other judges concurred.
