Georgia rehabilitation supplier billing —
Rule 200.2, in six-minute units.
Board Rules 200.1 and 200.2 registered you with the SBWC, and you renew every year. You send an itemized time bill in six-minute units straight to the carrier, the TPA or the self-insured employer — $106 an hour, $124 if you are catastrophic — and you expect payment in thirty days.
The facts, before the pitch.

Your week, in Georgia’s documents.
Six-minute units, two possible rates, and a bill that has to be itemized enough for an adjuster to approve it without calling you.
- 7:50 a.m.Call with the treating physician’s office. Eighteen minutes.Three units at the registered supplier rate. The claim number and the carrier come with the client.
- 10:40 a.m.Catastrophic file: home visit and family conference.The higher rate applies because of the file, not because you remembered to change it.
- 1:15 p.m.Employer contact, then a written update to the adjuster.Two rows. The narrative is written once and reused in the monthly report.
- 4:30 p.m.Month end. Nine files, five payers, five itemized time bills.Every line dated, coded, timed and priced — and each bill becomes a receivable the moment it leaves.
Every one of those rows is typed once, as it happens. The daily log writes itself as you go, the weekly narrative log builds in your own Word template, a CMS-1500 fills with the right units and the right payer block where a payer wants one — and where your state bills on its own form or an invoice, the dated, timed, priced lines that go on it come off the grid, and the receivable is tracked from the moment the bill leaves.

The 2025 SBWC rehabilitation fee schedule.
| What you bill | Rate |
|---|---|
| Registered rehabilitation supplier | $106/hr |
| Catastrophic supplier | $124/hr |
Current as of July 2026 — verify with the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation (SBWC).
Catastrophic suppliers are board-certified separately; the higher rate follows the designation on the file, not the task.
Rates move. When they do it arrives as a data update, and every activity you already billed keeps the rate it was billed under — which is the only way a rate change survives an audit.
Georgia is one of three states where nurse case managers register too.
Rule 200.2 requires registration for non-catastrophic medical case managers, which puts Georgia alongside North Carolina’s NCIC registry and Maryland’s practitioner registration — three jurisdictions where the vocational supplier and the nurse case manager are governed from the same shelf.
That matters commercially: a Georgia practice that carries both kinds of file needs one system that produces a six-minute-unit time bill and an hourly case-management invoice from the same activity grid. It does. The nurse case manager workflow.
The Board keeps a public supplier roster, which is also how adjusters check you before they assign. Being findable is not the same as being easy to pay — the itemization is what makes you easy to pay.
Who pays you in Georgia.
No state fund here. You bill private carriers, TPAs and self-insured employers directly, which means the submission address changes per payer and the thirty-day expectation is yours to enforce.

One check, many claimants. Whichever of these names is on the envelope, the check covers a dozen files at once. You record it once, tick the bills it pays, and anything short is flagged with the exact gap and the original form attached, ready to rebill. How that screen works.
Billing addresses and submission preferences go stale faster than any page can keep up, so we publish them only where we keep them current — today that is Ohio’s nine MCOs. Your Georgia payers and their submission preferences get set up during onboarding, from your own files.

States that work like Georgia
Questions, answered.
Does it handle catastrophic and non-catastrophic rates on one caseload?
Yes. The rate follows the file’s designation, so a catastrophic case bills at $124 an hour and a registered supplier file at $106 without you choosing per entry. Current as of July 2026 — verify with the Georgia SBWC.
What does the time bill actually look like?
Itemized: date, activity, minutes converted to six-minute units, rate, line total, with the narrative behind it. The format an adjuster can approve without a phone call, which is the difference between thirty days and ninety.
I do medical case management under Rule 200.2 as well.
Then you are one of the practices this was built for. The same activity grid produces a supplier time bill and an hourly case-management invoice, and the receivables list keeps both. More.
Do you know Georgia’s e-billing rules?
Not well enough to publish. We have not confirmed Georgia’s classification and will not guess at it. What we do ship is the bill, the documentation and filed proof of what was sent; direct electronic submission is roadmap everywhere.
Will it match my templates?
Yes — templates, folders, payers and rates are configured during onboarding, in your first week, included in every plan.
