    The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) has decided to withdraw a notice and request for comments about self-insurance under the Black Lung Benefits Act that was initially published on January 8, 2021. This decision is due to changes in the legal rules and guidance that initially justified the publication. Although the notice has been withdrawn, there's no change to existing laws or regulations. OWCP plans to review the self-insurance bulletin and will allow the public to comment on self-insurance procedures at a future date.

The form, also known as OWCP-915, is used for claiming reimbursement for medical expenses, and the DOL wants feedback on the necessity, accuracy, and effectiveness of this information collection. Comments are accepted until April 12, 2021, and interested individuals are encouraged to submit their opinions to the DOL's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs.
