(2) Hourly Rates for I.C. Designated Services, Special Contracts, and Unlisted Procedures. As a guideline, rates for restorative and rehabilitation center services for aquatic therapy, nautilus training, work evaluations/job site analysis, work hardening programs, and other unlisted services are determined by applying the appropriate portion of the hourly rate specified in 101 CMR 339.04(2). Diagnostic procedures that require specialized machinery, such as muscle testing during isometric and isokinetic exercises (e.g., use of cybex machine), should be reimbursed with consideration for additional equipment costs and technical assistance, in addition to the prorated hourly fee for therapists' services and routine overhead expenses.
