DOL & OWCP Doctors in Fort Worth for Injured Federal Workers
Fort Worth is home to major federal employers, from postal facilities and VA clinics to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and NAS JRB Fort Worth. When federal employees are hurt on the job, they're covered by the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), not Texas workers' comp. Under FECA you can choose your own initial treating physician, as long as the provider can be paid by OWCP.
Blue Star's federal workers' compensation doctors in Fort Worth are OWCP-enrolled and know the paperwork that keeps a claim moving: the CA-16 treatment authorization, CA-17 duty status reports, CA-20 attending physician's reports, and the "rationalized medical opinion" OWCP needs to connect your injury to your job.
Fort Worth federal employees we treat
- USPS letter carriers, clerks, and mail handlers across Tarrant County
- VA employees at the Fort Worth VA clinic and VA North Texas facilities
- Bureau of Engraving & Printing staff at the Western Currency Facility
- Bureau of Prisons staff at FMC Carswell and FCI Fort Worth
- DoD civilian employees at NAS JRB Fort Worth

| CA-17 | Duty status report with your work restrictions. |

Car Accident Doctor & Car Wreck Clinic in Fort Worth
Collisions on I-30, I-35W, I-20, Loop 820, Chisholm Trail Parkway, and Camp Bowie itself bring a steady stream of auto injury patients to our west Fort Worth clinic. Many feel fine at the scene and wake up a day or two later with neck pain, back pain, or headaches. That's when an evaluation matters most.
As a personal injury clinic, we treat your injuries and document them from the first visit: how the crash caused them, your treatment, and your progress. Insurers and attorneys rely on those records, and gaps in treatment are one of the first things insurers use to dispute a claim.
Auto accident injuries we treat in Fort Worth
- Whiplash and neck sprain/strain
- Back and disc injuries, including herniated discs and sciatica
- Truck and 18-wheeler wreck injuries
- Shoulder, knee, and wrist injuries from bracing on impact
- Post-accident headaches and soft-tissue injuries
- Rideshare, motorcycle, pedestrian, and slip-and-fall injuries
Personal injury chiropractor + physicians + PT
Many Fort Worth accident clinics offer chiropractic alone. Blue Star coordinates three disciplines in one plan:
- Physicians: diagnosis, medication management, imaging referrals
- Personal injury chiropractors: adjustments for neck and back injuries
- Physical therapists: rehab that restores strength and motion
Severe pain, numbness, a head injury, or trouble breathing? Go to the ER or call 911 first. See us for follow-up care.
Whiplash Treatment in Fort Worth
Whiplash is the most common car accident injury. It happens when a collision, usually a rear-end crash, snaps the head forward and back and strains the muscles, ligaments, and tendons of the neck. Symptoms often appear 24 to 72 hours later.
Evaluate
Exam of the neck, spine, and nerve function, with X-rays or MRI referral when needed.
Adjust
Gentle chiropractic care to restore alignment and range of motion.
Rehabilitate
Physical therapy and soft-tissue work to rebuild neck strength.
Document
Re-evaluations that track your recovery for your claim.
Watch for: neck pain and stiffness, headaches at the base of the skull, shoulder or upper-back pain, reduced range of motion, and arm tingling or numbness.
How Treatment Is Paid For at Blue Star Fort Worth
Federal work injuries
OWCP pays for treatment of accepted FECA claims directly. No copays or deductibles. A CA-16 from your employer can authorize care while your claim is reviewed.
Car accidents with an attorney
Your attorney issues a Letter of Protection (LOP), and your bills are paid from your settlement, so treatment can start now.
Car accidents without an attorney
Texas auto policies include at least $2,500 in Personal Injury Protection (PIP) unless rejected in writing. MedPay and health insurance may also apply.

Which is an incredible attribute to have- to listen to the patients needs… given that it's a rehab/work injury place, I hope I never have to visit you again- professionally. :)"
