Improving Access to Workers’ Compensation for Injured Federal Workers Act of 2025

This bill expands eligibility for workers' compensation medical care under the Federal Employees' Compensation Act by adding nurse practitioners and physician assistants as covered providers. It directly affects injured federal workers who can now receive care from these professionals within their state-authorized scope of practice. Key provisions redefine "other eligible provider" in the law and update related sections to replace "physician" with "physician or other eligible provider" throughout the statute. The bill requires the Secretary of Labor to issue final regulations within six months of enactment to implement these changes.
