BWC Changes Policy on Electronic Filing of Disability Form

The Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation has implemented a policy requiring strict adherence to a requirement that injured workers submit a fully-completed copy of the C-84 Application for Temporary Total Disability.  Previously, the BWC had processed partially completed forms, with a medical certification, in many cases involving ongoing payment of compensation benefits.  In a related development, the BWC is now accepting electronically signed C-84 forms via the agency's website.
