The Office of Workers Compensation Programs (OWCP) has strict criteria and guidelines for eligibility. Your claim must be established in a very specific manner. Our clinic has 28 years of experience providing impairment rating evaluations that are needed to make a successful scheduled award claim. In order to qualify for a scheduled award an impairment rating evaluation needs to be completed by a OWCP approved and properly qualified physician who must submit a narrative report with a description of the medical evidence that satisfy the necessary procedural requirements for a valid impairment including MMI, use of AMA’s 6th edition Guides, calculation of rating, citation of AMA tables, etc. BUT the purpose of this podcast is to make sure you understand if you are actually qualified to receive a scheduled award based on your federal work-related injury.
The OWCP lists specific body parts that qualify for receiving a schedule award. Does your injury meet the basic qualifications before you go through the award process? These are the body parts that qualify:
Arm, Leg, Hand, Fingers, Foot, Eye, Breast, Skin, Kidney, Lung, Skin, Throat, Penis, Testicle, Tongue , Ovary, Uterus, Vagina, Toes. Unfortunately, if you have an injured body part, not on the list, you do not qualify for an award.
