Effective January 27, 2024, providers can submit provider enrollment applications and enrollment maintenance updates using an electronic signature.

An electronic signature will be applied to the application based on the account information of the user who is completing the application online. A “wet” or physical signature will no longer be required to submit an enrollment application or update.

Electronic signatures are also applicable in these scenarios:

• Online provider enrollment application with the status of “In Progress” (started but not submitted).
• Online provider enrollment application with status of “Returned to Provider” (RTP’d).

Please refer to the Enrollment Resource Guides for further information by visiting https://owcpmed.dol.gov/portal/Provider/Enrollments.
