The Department of Labor (DOL) is seeking public comments on continuing the use of the "Claim for Medical Reimbursement Form." This effort aims to reduce paperwork and the burden placed on respondents, in line with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. 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.
Simple Explanation
The people in charge of making sure workers who get hurt at their jobs are properly taken care of are asking everyone to tell them what they think about a form that helps people get paid back for doctor visits and medicine. They want to know if the form is easy to use so they can make it better and less work for everyone.
