This notice is intended to inform the public of the release on July 3, 2024 of Circular 24-04 (FECA Circular 24-04) reflecting a modernized process for the War Hazard (WH) reimbursement submission process for Defense Base Act insurance carriers.
The Circular provides information reflecting the option of submitting WH reimbursement documentation via encrypted email rather than digital media. While the option of digital media remains available, submission via encrypted email will be more efficient avoiding the need of having to mail the media. The Circular further eliminates the need to execute individual Memoranda of Understanding.
