Get Agency Official) Should Complete The Front Of Form Ca-16 ... - Va

Federal Workers' Compensation Injured postal workers are required to fill in form CA-17, which is a form which outlines information from a doctor forbidding an injured federal employee from carrying out certain activities due to their inherently physically taxing nature.

CA-16s can be approved and provided only by a postal supervisor. A properly issued CA-16 must have the name, title and signature of the authorizing official. CA-16s are not available online—for a very good reason. Only the au- thorizing agency has the authority to provide the CA-16.

The insurance company has the right to choose the doctor but must do so within five working days after you make the request (10 if the request is made by mail). If the insurance company misses the deadline, you can choose your own doctor.

Form CA-17 is designed to be filled out by the injured worker's supervisor and his/her treating physician to complete. It is split into two sections: A and B. Side A is to be completed by the employee's supervisor.

Your supervisor should complete page 1 of Form CA-16 and provide it to you for your attending physicians information. You should present this form to your attending physician and request that they complete page two of the form and forward it to the OWCP.

California law requires that employers, including those in the construction industry, carry workers' compensation insurance, even if they have only one employee. The insurance exists for employees who get hurt or sick because of work.

The employer shall issue Form CA-16 within 4 hours of the claimed injury. If the employer gives verbal authorization for such care, he or she should issue a Form CA-16 within 48 hours. The employer is NOT required to issue a Form CA-16 more than one week after the occurrence of the claimed injury.
