The average amount paid for all California WC physician reports fell 37% from $26.13 in the 1st quarter of 2013 to $16.53 in the 1st quarter of 2014 as the state began to transition to the new RBRVS Fee Schedule, but that decline was due to changes in the underlying E&M services in the schedule and not a decrease in the fee schedule amounts assigned to report codes.
