Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late — Start Your OWCP Claim the Right Way

If you’re a federal employee injured on the job, filing a claim with the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) can feel like entering unfamiliar territory. The forms, timelines, medical documentation, and follow-ups can become overwhelming—especially when you’re in pain or unsure where to start. At Rebound Clinics DMV, we understand the process inside and out. That’s why we encourage all injured federal workers to schedule a consultation as early as possible—even if you’re just starting to explore your options.
With locations throughout the Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. region, we offer personalized guidance and OWCP-specific care to help you move forward confidently, without costly mistakes or delays.
Why Early OWCP Guidance Makes a Big Difference
Waiting too long to get help—or trying to manage the process on your own—can lead to:
- Missed deadlines (like the 30-day window to file Form CA-1 and receive COP)
- Incomplete or non-compliant medical documentation
- Filing the wrong form (CA-1 vs. CA-2)
- Denied claims due to improper paperwork
- Lost time, stress, and unnecessary costs
By scheduling a consultation early, you can avoid these common issues and start with a clear plan.
What to Expect During Your OWCP Consultation
When you book a consultation at Rebound Clinics DMV, here’s what we cover:
1. Understanding Your Injury and Work Duties
We begin by discussing what happened, what symptoms you’re experiencing, and the type of job duties you perform. This helps us determine:
- Whether your injury qualifies as traumatic (CA-1) or occupational (CA-2)
- Whether your condition may worsen without immediate care
- What kind of documentation will be required
2. Review of Forms and OWCP Filing Requirements
We help you:
- Register with ECOMP, the Department of Labor’s online submission system
- Understand which OWCP forms apply to your case
- Identify which supporting documents you’ll need (CA-16, CA-17, medical narratives, etc.)
- Create a timeline so you don’t miss any key deadlines
3. Medical Evaluation and OWCP-Compliant Records
If you choose to continue care with us, we’ll conduct a full medical evaluation. Our team is trained to provide:
- Objective injury assessments
- Documentation that meets OWCP formatting standards
- Clear explanations of how your injury is job-related (critical for claim approval)
- Duty status updates to support any time off work or modified assignments
4. Ongoing Claim and Recovery Support
From your first visit through claim resolution, we continue to:
- Track your paperwork and filing status
- Submit updated records through ECOMP
- Prepare reconsideration documents if your claim is denied
- Communicate with your agency or claims examiner as needed
Who Should Schedule a Consultation?
You should reach out as soon as possible if:
- You’ve been injured or developed symptoms while working in a federal job
- You’re unsure whether to file a CA-1 or CA-2
- You haven’t seen a doctor yet—or saw one unfamiliar with OWCP
- You feel overwhelmed by the paperwork or online filing system
- You want to prevent delays, denials, or unnecessary stress
Even if your claim is already in progress or was previously denied, we can help assess your next steps.
