DWC has released its annual change notice to the Medical Fee Guideline conversion factors based on the Medicare Economic Index (MEI). The MEI for 2025 reflects an increase of 3.5%.
If you have questions, call CompConnection for Health Care Providers at 800-252-7031, option 3.
See updated conversion factors on the TDI website.
It’s now more attractive than ever to be a designated doctor (DD) in the workers’ compensation system.
DDs are medical experts that DWC trains to help answer questions about an injured employee’s medical condition or help resolve a dispute. If you’re a health care provider and want to learn more, come out to our 101 workshop in January.
Watch our new video to find out what DDs enjoy most about their role:
Finding information quickly is essential for busy doctors and medical office staff. Our new pharmacy page is designed with that in mind. Easily find:
- Pharmacy rules.
- Pharmacy closed formulary.
- Appendix A (N status drugs).
- Pharmacy fee guidelines.
- And more!
Test it out on the TDI website.
