\"Welcome<\/a>Yes, a claimant may fill out a Form 25T<\/a> and request to be reimbursed for travel expenses and mileage incurred due to medical treatment visits.\u00a0 However, not every trip will be reimbursed.\u00a0 In order to collect on mileage, the trip for the medical treatment must be more than 20 miles roundtrip. \u00a0Moreover, special consideration for totally disabled claimants may be made per individual case.<\/p>\n

How much are you able to be reimbursed per mile?\u00a0 This is mandated through the North Carolina Industrial Commission and the amount awarded is stipulated on the Form 25T.\u00a0 How much is awarded is dependent on the time frame during which one drove for the medical treatment.\u00a0 For instance, starting July 1, 2011, a claimant is awarded $.555 per mile.\u00a0 If the traveling occurred from January 1st<\/sup> to June 30, 2011, the claimant received $.51 per mile.\u00a0 The amount awarded does change from year to year.\u00a0 Therefore, it is important to check an updated Form 25T to determine the appropriate mileage reimbursement amount. You can do that by checking out this section of the North Carolina Industrial Commission\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you believe you are not being paid the compensation you deserve then you should contact an experienced workers’ compensation attorney<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
