A denial doesn’t always mean “no.”

It often means:

“Provide stronger documentation.”

Reconsideration is about evidence, not emotion.

Supervisors play an administrative role, not a decision-making one.

OWCP determines eligibility.

Your doctor determines medical restrictions.

Understanding who has authority can prevent unnecessary confusion and delays.

Many OWCP denials aren’t because the injury didn’t happen.

They happen because causation wasn’t clearly documented.

Understanding what OWCP looks for can prevent avoidable denials before they start.

A dog bite on your route is not “just a dog bite.”

It is a federal work injury.

If you are bitten while delivering mail or performing your job duties, you should file a CA-1 for a traumatic injury. You may also be eligible for a CA-16, which can authorize medical treatment right away.

But here’s what most employees don’t realize…

A dog bite can also qualify as a third-party claim.

That means:
• Your OWCP claim covers medical and wage benefits.
• You may also have a claim against the homeowner’s insurance.
• Both processes can exist at the same time.

It is not one or the other.

Too many employees are told, “That’s not OWCP — that’s third party.”

That is incorrect.

If you were on duty, it is a work injury.

If your CA-1 was filed incorrectly, it doesn’t mean your claim is ruined.

But it does mean you should address it early.

Your claim is built on documentation, and getting the details right from the start protects everything that follows.

ECOMP is a tool.

But your claim depends on how accurately you use it.

Just because your case was “closed” doesn’t mean it’s over.

Federal employees can reopen claims if symptoms worsen or an accepted condition recurs.

If:
• Your pain increases
• You need a new treatment
• You miss additional work
• The original injury flares up

You may be eligible to file a recurrence (CA-2a).

But here’s the key: it must be medically supported.

Your doctor needs to:
• Confirm the condition has worsened
• Connect it to the original accepted injury
• Provide updated documentation

Reopening is not automatic. It’s medical.

Do you have a copy of your CA-1?

That form sets the foundation for your entire claim.

If details are wrong at the beginning, everything after can be affected.

VA Employees — this message is for you.

If you work for the Department of Veterans Affairs — including teams at Washington VA Medical Center in DC — and your job is wearing down your body, this is important.

Many Veterans Affairs employees develop wear‑and‑tear injuries from years of walking hospital halls, lifting, standing, and repetitive movement — and those injuries may qualify for OWCP claims, even without a single accident.

At Federal Injury Centers DMV, we help Veterans Affairs employees:
✅ Get out of pain… meet the best Injury Pros in the DMV
✅ Get your OWCP claim submitted and approved… meet our staff who will walk you through the whole process from A–Z
✅ Get paid for permanent injury… learn how to calculate your payment
