A DOL - OWCP CA-2a: Recurrences or New Injuries, New Illnesses

A DOL - OWCP Federal Workers Compensation injury known as a recurrence of an injury is described as one of the following:

1. A spontaneous return of the symptoms of a previous injury or occupational disease without intervening cause.

2. A return or increase of disability due to a consequential injury: Example Something that occurs due to weakness or impairment caused by a work related injury.

3. Withdrawal of a specific duty assignment when the employee cannot perform the full duties of the regular or limited duty position.

There are two types of recurrences:

•A recurrence of the medical condition is the documented need for additional medical treatment after release from treatment for the work related injury. Continuing treatment for the original condition is not considered a recurrence.

•A recurrence of disability is an inability to work after an employee has returned to work, caused by a spontaneous change in a medical condition which had resulted from a previous injury or illness without an intervening injury or new exposure to the work environment that caused the illness.
