Write the full and complete Employee name and address. Also include the employee’s Social Security Number (SSN) which is required to validate identity of the person. Also needed is the date of injury and the report of injury codes.

10. What key information is needed on documents sent to the Division?

  • Documents should be clear, clean and readable.
  • Use black or blue ink only. No pencil. Do not use red or green as these colors are filtered out.
  • White paper is best. Colored paper can turn black when imaged and become unreadable.
  • All documents should have the Wyoming Case Number and complete patient name.
  • Also include patients SSN number, for a confirmation reference.
  • If a bill, include your Tax ID Number and payee name and address.

11. What is not acceptable and cannot be used on documents?

  • Do not use colored markers or highlighters (pink, blue, green, purple) to emphasis data. It will turn ‘black’ and make the information unreadable. Please circle or underline important data.
  • Do not use red or green ink to write information on documents. These colors will be filtered out in the image process, which makes the colored ink and information disappear.
  • Do not use colored ‘sticky’ notes, as these colors turn black and the notes cannot be read.
  • Only YELLOW sticky notes with black or blue ink are acceptable for readable image processing.
  • A ‘sticky’ note will become part of the document, as it is received.

12. Are copies or faxed documents acceptable?

The best document is an original document. While Fax copies are received quickly, they usually take longer to process, due to being unreadable and very poor quality, with black streaks and dark shaded areas. Clean, clear photo copies can be accepted. However, messy copies with dark streaks, shaded areas or, smudges will be very poor quality and may be unreadable. If the copy is not readable, it is not a valuable document for review.

Write the specific details of the accident and injury, in a simple short phrase to the point.
