PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT

The Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a) authorizes OWCP to ask you for information needed in the administration of the EEOICPA program. Authority to collect information is in 42 USC 7384d, 20 CFR 30.1 et seq. and E.O. 13179. The information we obtain is used to decide if the services and supplies being billed for are covered by the program and to insure that proper payment is made. There are no penalties for failure to supply information; however, failure to furnish information regarding the medical service(s) at issue will prevent payment of the bill. Failure to supply the claim number or CPT codes will delay payment or may result in rejection of the authorization request because of incomplete information.

We are authorized to request a taxpayer identification number (TIN) or Social Security Number (SSN) under the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, 31 U.S.C. 7701(c)(1), which mandates us to require persons who are doing business with a Federal agency to furnish a TIN or SSN. The SSN or TIN, and other information maintained by us may be used for identification, to support debt collection efforts carried on by the Federal government, and for other purposes required or authorized by law. Additional disclosures are made through routine uses for information contained in systems of records. See Department of Labor system DOL/OWCP-11 published in the Federal Register, Vol. 81, page 25868, April 29, 2016, or as updated and republished.

You should be aware that P.L. 100-503, the “Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988,” permits the government to verify information by way of computer matches.
