No change for Mileage Rate for Medical and Medical-Legal Travel Expenses in 2012
The current mileage rate of 55.5¢ for medical and medical-legal travel expenses will remain unchanged in 2012. This rate must be paid for travel on or after January 1, 2012 regardless of the date of injury.
Labor Code section 4600, in conjunction with Government Code section 19820 and the Department of Personnel Administration regulations, establishes the rate payable for mileage reimbursement for medical and medical-legal expenses and ties it to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) published mileage reimbursement rate.
