Starting January 1 any outstanding unpaid traveling expenses will be reimbursed at the rate of 54 cents per mile on 2016, regardless of the date of the actual work injury. The new rate is in accordance with Labor Code section 4600, and is in conjunction with section 19820 of the Government Code and the Department of Personnel Administration regulations. These organizations establish the rate that injured victims involved in workers’ compensation claims will be reimbursed for medical or medical-legal expenses.

this only applies to those claims under california jurisdiction; claims from other states should look to your own state for changes in the comp laws and benefits effective in 2016.

Thank you for the info!
I am not an attorney.Anything I write should not be considered legal advice.I am writing from my own personal experiences,which is not from any sort of legal background. You should consult with an attorney over legal issues. In California, if you cannot get an attorney you can consult with an I&A officer.
