DOL Doctor FAQs

What is a DOL doctor?

A DOL doctor is a physician or other medical provider enrolled with the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) to treat injured federal employees under the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA) and bill OWCP directly. The Department of Labor does not certify doctors; providers enroll and receive an OWCP provider number.

Can I choose my own doctor for an OWCP claim?

Yes. Under FECA you may choose your initial treating physician. After that first choice, switching to a different physician generally needs OWCP's approval, so it pays to pick a doctor who already treats federal workers' compensation cases.

Do I pay anything to see a DOL doctor?

For an accepted OWCP claim, the provider bills OWCP for covered treatment of your work injury, so you should not have out-of-pocket costs for that care. Many doctors that take DOL also help you file your claim and forms at no charge.

What is Form CA-16?

Form CA-16, Authorization for Examination and/or Treatment, can be issued by your agency after a traumatic injury. It authorizes a doctor to examine and treat you for up to 60 days while OWCP reviews your claim. Ask your supervisor for it right after the injury.
