Guest guest Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Is there a website I can go to to see cpt codes and a fee schedule for WC in California? Another question I have is, we have a pool that some WC clients use for independent exercise. We want to bill for this service, much like WC paying for a gym. How are people charging for this service? Bettye -Saleh, PT Easter Seals Ventura, CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
