NOTICE OF TERMINATION OF RULEMAKING

The New Mexico Workers’ Compensation Administration (WCA) is providing Notice to terminate the rulemaking regarding the amendments to 11.4.2 NMAC – Data Reporting and Safety Requirements (minor/technical changes only), and 11.4.7 NMAC Payments for Health Care Services (imposing late payment charge on payors who miss 30-day deadline to pay or deny a provider’s medical bill, including permissible grounds to deny payment of a medical bill by reference to the WCA fee schedule, clarifying allowable reimbursements for health care provider dispensed prescriptions, raising permitted deposition charges for health care providers).
