Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation (DCMWC)

Effective July 22, 2020, the Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation (DCMWC), also known as the Federal Black Lung Program, is moving central mailroom operations to London, Kentucky. We encourage our stakeholders to utilize our C.O.A.L. Mine portal for electronic document submission; however, if you need to mail physical documents associated with a Black Lung claim, please begin using the following mailing addresses immediately:

 

IMPORTANT: We are working to have our forms and business reply envelopes updated with the London, KY addresses. Until that is complete, the mailroom currently listed in San Antonio, TX will be forwarding all mail to London, KY. To reduce mail processing delays, please use the London, KY address for mailing, even if the address on the form is San Antonio, TX.

Note that this transition does not impact medical bill processing services, which are still being handled through our contractor, CNSI.

If you have any questions please contact your claims examiner or email us at DCMWC-public@dol.gov.
