WCD vocational assistance: insurer referral and certified-provider check
Resources, agencies and counties · resources
What this source covers
WCD explains insurer-provided vocational assistance and the certified/registered professional roles; its worker page identifies possible job-placement/training eligibility.
How to use it
Ask the workers' compensation insurer about vocational assistance and an eligibility evaluation, and confirm the professional is certified/on a registered provider's staff. Contact WCD at 800-452-0288 for routing help. Form 1880 on the vocational page is a professional certification/renewal form, not the worker benefit application. Phone: 800-452-0288.
Limits and questions to verify
The vocational page largely addresses provider certification; it does not approve a worker's training plan. Do not treat Form 1880 or professional education credentials as worker eligibility paperwork. Job placement, training, wage tests, costs and dispute instructions require the actual insurer/provider decision.
