The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers workers' compensation programs under four federal Acts: the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA), the Federal Black Lung Benefits Act (FBLBA), and the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOICA). The OWCP Medical Fee Schedule applies to FECA, EEOICA and LHWCA; a modified version is used for the FBLBA.
