Effective February 22, 2025, OWCP providers submitting bills online using the direct data entry (DDE) feature are required to acknowledge an attestation statement for institutional and dental bills.

After entering your bill and selecting the Submit Bill button, the attestation statement will appear in a separate window. Providers must review and select the checkbox to acknowledge the attestation statement.

This attestation statement has been in place for professional bills as of November 16, 2024, and now has been extended to institutional and dental bills.

Be sure to allow pop-ups on your internet browser for the WCMBP portal https://owcpmed.dol.gov/. If you do not see the separate window after selecting the Submit Bill button, return to the portal menu and select the Retrieve Saved Bills option to locate your saved bill and submit.

Effective February 22, 2025, the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) will automatically reprocess denied bills for services provided by reactivated OWCP providers during their inactive status.

If the OWCP provider number submitted on a bill is not active for the billed dates of services, then the provider should submit the required documentation to reactivate their provider file. When the provider is reactivated, the denied bills will be reprocessed if the following conditions apply:

• The denial occurred within the past six months from reactivation
• The denial is for Explanation of Benefits (EOB) Edit 50424
• No other denial EOB edits applied to the bill

Please note that additional denied EOB edits may be posted during reprocessing. Providers are encouraged to use to the EOB Reference Guide to find additional steps and resources to review and rectify the EOB bill denials. Please visit https://owcpmed.dol.gov/portal/provider to view the guide.
