Which rules apply in St. Louis, MO
Most St. Louis work injuries are Missouri state claims, administered by the Missouri Division of Workers' Compensation. In Missouri, the employer or its insurer generally has the right to direct medical care, so we verify authorization before treatment and document to DWC standards, including reporting timelines and permanent partial disability findings. Federal claims — postal, VA and other federal employees — are administered by OWCP under FECA, on a different form set and a different timeline. Federal employees filing under FECA choose their own initial treating physician — that right belongs to the worker, not to the agency and not to us.
Federal therapy courses require OWCP authorization, which we request with the clinical justification attached. State-side therapy is authorized through the employer, insurer or TPA before the first session.
