WC fees in Oregon

Couldn't it also have to do with the fact that, because so many IWs have been steered away from us that it 'appears' that IWs aren't interested in chiro work? THAT's the piece that needs to be corrected.

It is my understanding that the WC fees are determined by the average billed amount for any given service from the previous year here in Oregon. So for a 98940 service they would simply look at every billed service for this code submitted to the WC system for 2009 and then average these out. Then Vola!- they have a new fee for this service. If this is true, then if all the doc's in Oregon carefully keep their fees at or just below the new rate every year we will see our accepted WC/Auto fees for any given service decrease every year. This appears to be exactly what is happening.Vern am I wrong on this ? Schneider DCPD-- Schneider DC PDX

The New Busy think 9 to 5 is a cute idea. Combine multiple calendars with Hotmail. Get busy.

Just for the record in my earlier email and letter to W/C division I misspelled the contact person for all correspondence. The man's name is Fred Bruyns-not Fred Brayns. Please do not perpetuate my error if you do send a letter to the WC folks on this most ;important matter. I have since corrected my error with the division. I am attaching my letter again with correct name for those interested. The info is accurate as it is gleaned from the ruminations of the great one-Vern .
