The Division of Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation (DEEOIC) does not accept payments made by mail. All providers must submit an adjustment (corrected bill) to ensure that the overpayment created is properly reflected as an account receivable by DEEOIC. Once the account receivable is established, providers will receive a debt letter and instructions on how to service the account receivable from the Treasury's Centralized Receivables Service (CRS). For more information click here and refer to the section titled "How to Submit Refunds of Overpayments".

Beginning June 1, 2024, Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) providers can access a new Electronic Case Lookup feature on the secure Workers’ Compensation Medical Bill Processing (WCMBP) portal.

Providers will be able to enter claimant information to obtain a claimant’s OWCP case number. This feature will be available to locate the case number for DCMWC, DEEOIC, or DFEC claimants.

After selecting the Program, providers will be able to inquire by:

• Date of Birth (DOB) and Social Security Number (SSN) or
• Date of Birth (DOB), First Name, and Last Name
• Please note, in addition to the above criteria, providers must enter the Date of Injury (DOI) for DFEC claimants.

Please refer to the Verify Claimant Eligibility tutorial for further information.

Effective June 1, 2024, the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) will implement an enhancement to prevent overpayments created from denied adjustment requests. 

On or after June 1, 2024, if an adjustment is submitted on a bill that has already been paid but subsequently denied in its entirety, the denial will be reflected on the Remittance Advice (RV), and the bill inquiry screen will display a status of denied.

In such cases, when providers seek payment reconsideration for the denied bill, it is essential to submit the adjustment request using the previously paid bill. This ensures that the adjustment is correctly associated with the original bill and facilitates the review process for payment reconsideration.

Providers are encouraged to use the Bill Inquiry and Bill Adjustment features of the Workers’ Compensation Medical Bill Processing (WCMBP) Portal https://owcpmed.dol.gov/ to review bill history.
