Effective August 9, 2025, the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) will require group practices to include the servicing or rendering provider National Provider Identifier (NPI) when billing a professional claim. In addition, group practices must ensure the submitted servicing or rendering NPI is associated with an active servicing provider in the OWCP provider file.
Billing
Please follow the steps below to ensure the servicing NPI is submitted on the bill.
Please note that this requirement is not applicable to providers enrolled as individuals, facilities, or non-medical providers. This requirement is also not applicable to institutional or dental bills.
Provider Enrollment
Professional bills from group practice providers received on or after August 9, 2025, will be denied if submitted without the servicing or rendering NPI, or if the submitted servicing or rendering NPI is not active in the group provider file.
Providers can review and, if needed, update the servicing provider information through the Workers’ Compensation Medical Bill Processing (WCMBP) portal https://owcpmed.dol.gov/, or by paper on the Provider Enrollment Application (OWCP-1168) Form.
