This site contains the official Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission medical fee schedule. This schedule applies to those medical treatments and procedures that are rendered on or after February 1, 2006 and are covered under Section 8 of the Illinois Workers' Compensation Act. The fees are based on the criteria set forth in Section 8.2 of the Act.

Employers, insurance carriers, and other workers’ compensation payers shall use this schedule, and its instructions and guidelines, when paying medical charges submitted by physicians, hospitals, or other medical providers for services covered under the Act.

Payment for medical care covered under the Act shall be the lesser of the health care provider's actual charge or the fee set by the schedule. If, however, the employer/insurer and health care provider enter into a contract for different reimbursement levels, those negotiated amounts will prevail.

When possible, this schedule sets a fee for each treatment or facility code in nine categories of service in each geozip where the treatment was provided in Illinois. (Geozip is defined as the first three digits of a zip code). Where there is insufficient data to set a defined amount, then a bill shall be paid at 76% of the actual charge. Please refer to the Instructions and Guidelines for out-of-state treatment information.
