Re: Mileage Reimbursement
Yes, Florida does reimburse mileage to authorized medical treatment, and diagnostic testing. I believe the current rate is 29 cents per mile. In addition, if the injured worker does not have transportation to attend such appointments, the Employer/Carrier may also be responsible for providing transportation to and from the authorized medical appointment and/or testing.
If you have any specific questions about your situation, you should contact a qualified workers' compensation attorney in your area. The information in this response is a tool, and should not be construed as specific legal advice, but only information to guide you in your decision to seek further representation. Good luck.
