I see that CMS authorize charging the Medicare patient for missed appointments (same as non-Medicare patients). However, this rule does not applies to Worker's Compensation claims. The question I am asking is a fair and equitable charge. I cannot figure because no Work RVUs in Physician Fee Schedule. I see we are being charge (what I think is excessive between $200 -$400). Any help will be appreciated.

In Colorado the WC carriers have a special work status form and special code for these situations. Maybe look into that?
