Prior to the new C-4 forms, we billed for the physician deposition fees on the C-4. Which C-4 form would we utilize to bill for depositions and a physicians appearance at a hearing?
Use the C-4.2 form, because almost all medical testimony is taken during the course of a claimant’s treatment plan. • If a C-4.3 form has been submitted, indicating a permanent impairment or maximum medical improvement was reached, and then over a period of time the patient returns to the treating physician for symptomatic treatment, would a C-4.3 or C-4.2 be filed? Use the C-4.2 for all subsequent treatment.
