After public hearings, who shall adopt and periodically revise the official medical fee schedule?

• A. Director of industrial relations
• B. Medical director
• C. WCAB
• D. Administrative director

Answer: (D)

The authority to adopt and periodically revise the official medical fee schedule rests with the Administrative Director of the Division of Workers’ Compensation. After the required public hearings, this official issues and updates the OMFS to establish uniform reimbursement rates for medical services in California workers’ comp. The Director of Industrial Relations oversees the broader department, but the specific duty of adopting and revising the OMFS lies with the Administrative Director. The WCAB handles disputes and rulings, not fee schedule development, and a medical director does not have the statutory authority to set the OMFS.
