Section 301.1 - Fees for attendance of physicians and podiatrists at hearings

Whenever the attendance of the injured employee's treating or consul- tant physician or podiatrist at a hearing is required, such p hysician or podiatrist shall be entitled to an attendance fee of $450. In instances involving special circumstances, should the Board in its judg- ment deem that the appropriate fee specified above is inadequate, the Board may fix a fee in an amount gr eater than said sum for such hearing, such increased fee to be comme nsurate with the circumstances in the particular case. The circumst ances to be considered are the period of time the physician or podiatrist has consumed in testifying, and traveling time from the physician's or podiatrist's office to the hearing point. Where the attendance is pursuant to a su bpoena issued by the board, the Workers' Compensation Law judge, or any officer of the board so designated by the chair, the attendance fee may be limited to no more than $100.
