Solution

We first ensured that compliant medical evidence was on record.

With compliant medical evidence, we could justify her continuing eligibility to OWCP-FECA wage loss compensation benefits. We then verified the client’s eligibility for OPM Disability Retirement and prepared her application, which was promptly approved. We discussed the monetary value of each benefit so our client could make the most economically favorable decision for her future, with the added protection of multiple options for disability benefits.
