Oklahoma Workers’ Comp Commission Seeks Comments on Medical Fee Schedule

The Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Commission is now accepting comments on the 2020 Medical Fee Schedule.

In 2020, the WCC, guided by its external consultant, FAIR Health, conducted an evaluation and update to the Medical Fee Schedule pursuant to 85A O.S. § 50(H)(14).

According to this statute, the Commission is tasked with reviewing and submitting a proposed updated Fee Schedule to the Legislature every two years.

The Workers’ Compensation Commission and FAIR Health are seeking written comments on potential revisions of the current Medical Fee Schedule and ground rules, last amended in May 2020, for their reference as they begin the review and drafting process of the proposed 2022 Medical Fee Schedule.

Written comments must be submitted via email to okfeedback@fairhealth.org by May 21, 2021.

Further opportunities for public comment will be provided to stakeholders once this draft is complete.
