Medical fees update - effective 1 August 2022

WorkCover Queensland has updated the Medical Items Table of Costs. Changes take effect on 1 August 2022.

The update reflects the recent amendments to the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) for 1 July and 1 August 2022.

The updated table of costs is available on the fees page of this website.

There may be further amendments to item numbers and/or fees after 1 August 2022. Please refer to our fees page as we will endeavour to update the table of costs as quickly as possible, should this occur.

Updates to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) fees

WorkCover has increased fees to Diagnostic Imaging MRI codes (63307-63743) reflective of recent MBS scheduled fee increases.

Prompt submission of invoices

Please submit invoices within two months of the treatment’s completion (date of service), as required by the Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003. We may refuse invoices submitted outside of this time.

If you have any questions, please call us on 1300 362 128.

For individual workers' compensation questions, such as payment of invoices, please contact the relevant insurer (WorkCover or the self-insurer).
