Part 6 of 8: Master Penalty and Interest
Providers, know your rights — and what to do if the payor breaks the rules. California law mandates consequences in the form of penalty and interest payments. Unfortunately, it’s often up to the provider to do the enforcing.
In this webinar, we discuss:
- Labor Code requirements for penalty and interest
- How to calculate penalty and interest amounts
- Penalty and interest for medical-legal bills
- Rules for different types of employers

Explanations of Review for Workers' Comp
While explanations of review (EORs) are normally an overlooked component of billing and claims processing, EORs are critical if a claims administrator contests or denies a bill or considers a bill incomplete. EORs include essential information such as reasons for denial and how providers can fix any bill errors. EORs are also mandatory before providers can move forward with Second Bill Reviews.
