OWCP Medical Fee Schedule

The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers workers’ compensation programs under four federal Acts: the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA), the Federal Black Lung Benefits Act (FBLBA), and the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOIC). The OWCP Medical Fee Schedule applies to FECA, EEOIC and LHWCA; a modified version is used for the FBLBA.

To download or view the Fee Schedule you must first read and accept the AMA "License For Use of "Physicians’ Current Procedural Terminology", Fourth Edition ("CPT®")" . The link to the license agreement is located at the bottom of this page.

The five character codes and descriptions included in the Office of Workers’ Compensation Program Fee Schedule (the "Fee Schedule") are obtained from the Physicians’ Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®), copyright 2003 by the American Medical Association (AMA). CPT is developed by the AMA as a listing of descriptive terms and five character identifying codes and modifiers for reporting medical services and procedures performed by physicians.

The publication includes only CPT five character codes and descriptions for reporting medical services and procedures that were selected by the USDL. Any use of CPT outside the Fee Schedule should refer to the most current Physicians’ Current Procedural Terminology which contains the complete and most current listings of CPT descriptive terms and five character identifying codes and modifiers for report medical services and procedures.
