Where can a medical provider go for information on workers compensation?
The North Carolina Industrial Commission web site: http://www.ic.nc.gov/. The Publications Section contains the Fee Schedule and Rating Guide. The Annual Bulletin is a great source of information. Also, see Frequently Asked Questions. The General Statutes and Rules are also available on-line. Under Search, there is a tool to search for the carrier: http://www.ic.nc.gov/iwcnss/. To purchase a complete copy of the American Medical Associations Current Procedural Technology Codes, telephone Ingenix, Inc. at (800) INGENIX (464-3649), option 1, or go to http://www.shopingenix.com/modules/catalog/catalog_category.asp to order a CPT code book online.
