Subpart D

Medical and Related Benefits

• Section Number: 10.324
• Section Name: May an employer require an employee to undergo a physical examination in connection with a work-related injury?

    The employer may have authority independent of the FECA to require 
the employee to undergo a medical examination to determine whether he or 
she meets the medical requirements of the position held or can perform 
the duties of that position. Nothing in the FECA
or in this part affects such authority. However, no agency-required 
examination or related activity shall interfere with the employee's 
initial choice of physician or the provision of any authorized 
examination or treatment, including the issuance of Form CA-16.
