New York Seeks 30% Hike for Some Workers’ Comp Costs

The New York Workers’ Compensation Board is proposing to raise portions of the medical fees schedule by 30 percent.

The fee would apply to the evaluation and management codes of the board’s medical fee schedule, which hasn’t seen an increase in payment rates since 1996.

The board said it will also review the fee schedules for medical, podiatry, psychology and chiropractic fee schedules.
