meet the eligibility criteria are randomly

group. Members of both groups are
surveyed twice. A survey is the only
way to collect information on self-
employment services, and household
income.

Description: The Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs (OWCP) is the
agency responsible for administration of
the Federal Employees’ Compensation
Act (FECA), 5 U.S.C. 8101 et seq., the
Black Lung Benefits Act (BLBA), 30
U.S.C. 901 et seq., the Energy
Employees Occupational Illness
Compensation Program Act of 2000
(EEOICPA), 42 U.S.C. 7384 et seq., and
the Longshore and Harbor Workers’
Compensation Act (LHWCA), 33 U.S.C.
901 et seq. These statutes require OWCP
to pay for medical and vocational
rehabilitation services provided to
beneficiaries. In order for OWCP’s
billing contractor to pay providers of
these services with its automated bill
processing system, providers must
‘‘enroll’’ with one or more of the OWCP
programs that administer the statutes by
E:\FR\FM\08NON1.SGM 08NON1
 65546 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 216 / Wednesday, November 8, 2006 / Notices
submitting certain profile information,
including identifying information, tax
I.D. information, and whether they
possess specialty or sub-specialty
training. Form OWCP 1168 is used to
obtain this information from each
provider.
The information provided is used by
all four programs to identify the
providers of medical and vocational
rehabilitation services, and to direct
payments to these providers accurately
and in a timely manner. The
information obtained also provides data
for the contractor to carry out a wide
range of automated bill ‘‘edits’’, such as
the identification of duplicate billings,
the application of pertinent fee
schedules, utilization review, and fraud
and abuse detection. The profile
information is also used to furnish
detailed reports to providers on the
status of previously submitted bills.
