What does re-activation of claim mean?
If there is a lapse in treatment of more than one (1) year, injured employees will need to get permission from BWC to receive treatment. Providers can send in a C-9 to re-activate the claim. However, BWC has the right to deny this request from the provider. If denied, BWC will require a C-86 motion from the patient or their representative. Injured employees may need to request assistance from their Physician of Record (POR) or a treating provider prior to any treatment date when re-activating the claim. BWC also has the right to deny this request.
