Dear Provider:
Thank you for your interest in participating as a medical services provider for the four programs administered by the U.S.
Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP). The OWCP administers four major disability
compensation programs which provide benefits to certain workers or their dependents who experience work-related injury
or occupational disease. These programs include the Division of Federal Employees’ Compensation (DFEC), the Division
of Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation (DEEOIC), the Division of Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation
(DCMWC), and the Division of Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation (DLHWC).
OWCP has contracted to provide medical bill processing services for these four programs. As part of their benefit structure,
these programs reimburse medical and non-medical providers for services rendered for the care and treatment of a
claimant’s compensable condition.
OWCP can only process bills from providers who have enrolled. To enroll, complete the enclosed provider enrollment form
to be assigned a provider identification number. Instructions for completing the enrollment form and a list of provider types
are enclosed. Any Provider Enrollment Form that is received with missing or incomplete information will be returned to the
submitter for correction and/or completion.
The Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 requires that payments made by the Federal Government be sent by
electronic funds transfer (EFT). EFT payments are mandatory because it simplifies the process, reduces the incidents of
billing error, and allows for expedited handling. An enrollment form for EFT is enclosed. A remittance advice listing all bills
paid on each EFT transaction will be sent to your mailing address. Please see notice on page 2.
You must submit current licensure information with your enrollment application. Moreover, each provider must
maintain appropriate current licensure in order to receive payments under OWCP's programs.
Group practices are responsible for monitoring the licensure of each servicing provider in the practice. Where
large group practices have providers in the group who are not providing medical services to our program on a
regular basis, the group practice is responsible for monitoring the licensure of each provider who practices in the
entire group.
Providers are required to enroll for each office location. Servicing providers under a group practice are not required to enroll
separately.
You may register as a participant in any one or more of the following four OWCP compensation programs – DFEC, DEEOIC,
DCMWC, and DLHWC. Please send the completed package(s)) at the address listed on the signature page (page 8) in the
Form OWCP-1168.
To assist claimants seeking medical services, OWCP has an on-line listing of providers, by program that is searchable by:
specialty, name, city, state, and zip code. Customers will be advised that a provider listing is not an endorsement, referral,
or an agreement to reimburse for medical services rendered by the Department of Labor or OWCP. Nor does it guarantee
that a medical provider will be reimbursed by OWCP for specific medical services or that a medical provider will agree to
provide medical services to a particular claimant.
You will be notified by mail once your enrollment package has been processed. Once you have received your OWCP
provider number, you may submit bills to the appropriate program at the following address(s):

NOTICE: Please be aware that the information being requested on Department of Treasury SF 3881- Payment Information
Form ACH Vendor Payment System - is required as part of the Department of Treasury Regulation 31 C.F.R. Part 208. This
federal regulation, in part, requires that all agencies issuing federal payment do so via Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT). This
includes but is not limited to the requirement of requesting a bank signature. Failure to include this information at the time
the provider enrollment and ACH Payment Information forms are submitted will result in the return of these documents to
the provider.
NOTICE: Continued participation as a medical provider under the four DOL programs above can be contingent on
your maintaining good standing as a medical provider under other federal health benefit programs such as
Medicare. Exclusion as a medical provider in those circumstances operates as an automatic exclusion under the
DFEC, DEEOIC and DLHWC Programs administered by OWCP. (See 20 C.F.R. §§ 10.815, 30.715, and 702.431. You
may also be subject to the federal government’s suspension and debarment provisions. (See 48 C.F.R. Subpart
