OWCP Claims Assistance, CA-1 / CA-2 / CA-17 & Denied Claims
The paperwork should never be the reason your federal injury claim stalls. We provide the physician-directed documentation the Department of Labor requires and support every core OWCP form, including denied-claim help.
In short: we supply the objective medical documentation your OWCP claim needs, support your CA-1, CA-2, CA-17 and CA-20 forms, and help when a claim is denied, so the medical side never holds up your benefits.
The process
Your Path Through an OWCP Claim
-
File Your Claim
Report the injury and file your CA-1 (traumatic injury) or CA-2 (occupational disease) with your agency. We help you understand what the Department of Labor needs to accept it.
-
Start Authorized Care
We evaluate your injury and begin physician-directed treatment. For accepted OWCP claims, care is billed directly to the DOL, with no out-of-pocket cost to you.
-
Document Everything
We provide the objective findings and duty-status reports (CA-17) your claim requires, on time, so your benefits and treatment keep moving.
-
Recover and Return
Coordinated therapy and a documented return to duty, with case expansion, reopening or an independent exam if your condition changes.

OWCP Claims Assistance FAQ
What does OWCP claims assistance include?
We provide the medical side of your federal claim: the objective findings, narrative reports and duty-status documentation the Department of Labor needs, plus support for your CA-1, CA-2, CA-17 and CA-20 forms. We do not provide legal advice, but we coordinate with your representative or attorney.
Which OWCP forms do you support?
CA-1 (traumatic injury), CA-2 (occupational disease), CA-17 (duty status report) and CA-20 (attending physician’s report). We complete the medical documentation tied to each so your claim and benefits keep moving.
My OWCP claim was denied. What now?
A denial is often about missing or unclear medical evidence. We review your file and provide the objective documentation and narrative reports that address the reason for denial, and we coordinate with your representative on next steps.
Can you help with a schedule award or impairment rating?
Yes. Once you reach maximum medical improvement, our independent medical exam service provides the impairment-rating documentation that supports a schedule award.
How soon can I be seen?
Same-week appointments are typically available, so your documentation and care start without delay.
