OWCP Doctors for VA Nurses, Healthcare Workers & Civilian Staff
VA healthcare workers face daily injury risk: patient lifting and transferring, needlestick exposures, slip/falls in hospitals, and assault from disoriented patients. We treat the full spectrum and handle the OWCP claim while you focus on recovery.
Common VA Work Injuries We Treat
- ▸Back and shoulder injuries from patient transfers
- ▸Needlestick exposures and post-exposure care
- ▸Knee and ankle injuries from slip/falls in clinical areas
- ▸Assault-related trauma from patient incidents
- ▸Repetitive strain from charting and computer work
- ▸Latex and chemical sensitivities
Filing Challenges Specific to VA
VA staff often delay filing because they're caring for others. Don't. The clock on FECA filing starts the day of injury, and detailed early documentation gets claims approved.
Why owcpdocs for VA Cases
Our providers document the patient-care context OWCP examiners need to see — we write reports that connect your job duties to your injury in language that gets claims approved on first review.
What to Do If You're Injured on the Job
- Report the injury to your supervisor immediately and in writing.
- Request a CA-1 (traumatic injury) or CA-2 (occupational disease) form.
- Get treated by an OWCP credentialed doctor — that's us.
- Keep copies of every form, every visit, every report.
- Don't use sick leave when FECA covers your time off work.
