OWCP Provider Number

In order for a medical provider to bill OWCP for medical care, the provider needs to register through OWCP's contractor to get a provider number. I have found that sometimes the process of registering for a provider number or straightening out problems with a provider number can become an obstacle to a physician's office being able to accept and treat federal workers compensation claimants. If your physician's office is having problems registering for their provider number or renewing their provider number, please ask whomever at the physician's office is having a problem with this process to call me directly. Here is a link to useful information on this program to share with your physician's office:
