DWS taking public comment on Workers’ Compensation - Miscellaneous Medical Protocols Rules

It is important that we be able to provide timely payments to you for your benefits, and in doing so, are making some changes. Therefore, as of 05/31/2024, you will no longer be able to file your weekly continued claims for payment over the telephone using the automated Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. You will be able to file your continued claims online at wyui.wyo.gov by logging in and clicking on Continued Claim > File Continued Claim.

CHEYENNE – The Department of Workforce Services proposes an update to Workers’ Compensation rules, Chapter 10: Miscellaneous Medical Protocols, and now seeks public comment. The proposed change removes duplicative language in Section 8 and reincorporates prior language to ensure appropriate reimbursement for durable medical equipment-related claims.

All of the proposed changes can be viewed in the strike and underline version available here. More information on the changes is available in the statement of reasons.

The public comment window is open through May 20, 2024 and comments may be submitted using the online form.
