Understanding Florida Worker’s Compensation Fee Schedule
What does Florida Worker’s Compensation Fee Schedule Mean?
The Florida Worker’s Compensation Fee Schedule details the process of reimbursing health care providers for services rendered for worker’s affected and entitled to compensation claims. Every year the state releases a large, four hundred plus page manual detailing all the nuance of the policies relating to these reimbursements. This manual is dense, tough to comprehend, and can feature minutiae that is easy to miss when going over such a large amount of information. For any company it is the last thing on earth one wants to deal with when already faced with the problems that can arise related to a worker’s injury and inability to work for a long period of time. Compounding this it is noted that the state of Florida’s Compensation Fee Schedule is amongst the worst and most punishing of any state.
This leaves companies with the unattractive situation of being forced to deal such an unwieldy amount of policy due to the inherent risks posed from operating in the state. Failure to comply adequately, or not understand the full breadth of the manual can lead to unnecessary expenditures or issues stemming from overdue payments that the employer simply was unaware of. The amount of frustration that can come from this is immeasurable, and any delays or difficulties in such an important process can be devastating to the company’s output, morale, and funds.

What Businesses Need to Know About Maximum Medical Improvement
What is Maximum Medical Improvement?
Maximum Medical Improvement is the term given to a patient when they are at the highest level of recovery possible. In the simplest form it is what the doctor tells a patient is the highest level of recovery process possible for the affected party. It can mean a complete recovery that is fully and completely healed, or a partial one in which the level of healing is sufficient.
Maximum Medical Improvement and Worker’s Compensation
The Maximum Medical Improvement level for a patient is deeply ingrained in the worker’s compensation process. It relates to how long the recovery period will be, how much the injured worker can expect to receive in compensation for the injury, and how complete the recovery can be. That last part is important as it determines the different types of compensation an employee can receive for their condition once the Maximum Medical Improvement level has been reached. This can be nothing, or it can be that the injured worker is entitled to certain partial or long-term related compensations. Dealing with the Maximum Medical Improvement level for each individual injured worker can be one of the most confusing and difficult parts of the already frustrating process of handling worker’s compensation related issues for a company. Determining what each level means case by case and how it will affect compensation and procedures involved can be time consuming, and when confronted with a bloated, nightmarish setup for going about this it can be the bane of a company’s existence.
