All three of these statutes require that OWCP pay for medical treatment of beneficiaries; this medical treatment can include inpatient/outpatient hospital services, as well as services provided by nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities, and home health aides in the home. In order to determine whether billed amounts are appropriate, OWCP needs to identify the patient, the specific services that were rendered and their relationship to the work-related injury or illness. The regulations implementing these statutes require the use of Form OWCP–92 or UB–92 for the submission of medical bills from institutional providers (20 CFR 10.801, 30.701, 725.405, 725.406, 725.701 and 725.704).

The paper UB–92 has been designed by the National Uniform Billing Committee and is neither a government-printed form nor distributed by OWCP; OWCP has, however, developed detailed instructions to ensure that it obtains the information it needs to consider requests for payment from institutional providers using this form.

Total Annual Costs (Operating/ Maintaining Systems or Purchasing Services): $1,120. Description: Title 30, Code of Federal Regulations, § 57.22204, which is applicable only to specific metal and nonmetal underground mines that are categorized as gassy, requires main fans to have pressure recording systems. Main fans are to be inspected daily while operating if persons are underground, and certification of the inspection is to be made by signature and date. Certifications and pressure recordings are to be kept for one year and made available to authorized representatives of the Secretary. Potentially gassy (explosive) conditions underground are largely controlled by the main fans. When accumulations of explosive gases such as methane are not swept from the mine by the main fans, they may reasonably be expected to contact an ignition source. The results are usually disastrous and multiple fatalities may be expected to occur. The main fan requirements of this standard are significantly more stringent than those imposed on nongassy mines. Information collected through the pressure recordings is used by the mine operator and MSHA to ensure that unsafe conditions are identified early and corrected.

    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., and the Energy Employees 
Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA), 42 
U.S.C. 7384 et seq. All three of these statutes require that OWCP pay 
for medical treatment of beneficiaries; this medical treatment can 
include inpatient/outpatient hospital services, as well as services 
provided by nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities, and home health 
aides in the home. In order to determine whether billed amounts are 
appropriate, OWCP needs to identify the patient, the specific services 
that were rendered and their relationship to the work-related injury or 
illness. The regulations implementing these statutes require the use of 
Form OWCP-92 or UB-92 for the submission of medical bills from 
institutional providers (20 CFR 10.801, 30.701, 725.405, 725.406, 
725.701 and 725.704).
    The Uniform Bill, known as the paper UB-92, has been approved by 
the American Hospital Association, the Centers for Medicare and

designed by the National Uniform Billing Committee and is neither a 
government-printed form nor distributed by OWCP; OWCP has, however, 
developed detailed instructions to ensure that it obtains the 
information it needs to consider requests for payment from 
institutional providers using this form. Form OWCP-92 or the paper UB-
92 is an ideal billing instrument for the provider community that 
services FECA, BLBA and EEOICPA beneficiaries because of its 
familiarity, its common use, and its acceptance by both government and 
private health service payers.
