Injured federal employees and the clinics that refer them often look specifically for DOL / OWCP terminology and providers who understand the structure of federal injury claims.
What DOL / OWCP means
OWCP is the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs within the U.S. Department of Labor and administers federal employee injury claims under FECA. A dedicated page helps patients and referral partners recognize that the practice is relevant to this referral pathway and understands the operational expectations tied to these cases
