Mileage Reimbursement Reduced to $.56 a Mile

The Department of Labor has announced that effective January 1, 2014 the Workers’ Compensation mileage reimbursement rate will be $.56 per mile. According to the Department's email the mileage reimbursement rate as determined by Rule 12.2100 is for "mileage traveled for medical treatment, to attend an employer's independent medical examination, or attend a vocational rehabilitation meeting, beyond the distance normally traveled to the workplace."  This is a slight reduction from the current rate of $.565.
