Continuation of Pay

• Section Number: 10.223
• Section Name: Are there other circumstances under which OWCP will not authorize payment of COP?

    When OWCP finds that an employee or his or her representative 
refuses or obstructs a medical examination required by OWCP, the right 
to COP is suspended until the refusal or obstruction ceases. COP already 
paid or payable for the period of suspension is forfeited. If already 
paid, the COP may be charged to annual or sick leave or considered an 
overpayment of pay consistent with 5 U.S.C. 5584.
