White Card / DOL Services at Alliance

You Shouldn’t Have to Navigate Your White Card Benefits Alone

You’ve already spent years doing the work. Getting the care you’ve earned shouldn’t mean trying to become an expert in Department of Labor requirements, medical authorizations and home health services.

That’s where Alliance comes in.

We help eligible EEOICPA beneficiaries and their families understand what comes next and coordinate authorized care based on their individual needs.

Our goal is simple: make it easier to get the right care, from the right people, in the place you call home.

One Company. Complete Care. No Runaround.

Healthcare can become complicated quickly—especially when different needs mean working with different providers.

Alliance does things differently.

We offer White Card services, Home Health, Personal Care and Hospice through one organization. That means as your healthcare needs change, you may not have to start over with an entirely new company.

An eligible EEOICPA beneficiary may receive authorized White Card care through Alliance while also having access to other Alliance services when medically appropriate and covered through Medicare, private insurance or another applicable payer.

One team. Multiple ways to care for you.

What Is an EEOICPA White Card?

The “White Card” is a common name for medical benefits available through the U.S. Department of Labor’s Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOICPA).

The program provides benefits to eligible workers who developed certain illnesses or medical conditions related to qualifying employment and occupational exposure.

When a claim is accepted and medical benefits are awarded, eligible beneficiaries may receive medical care related to their accepted work-related condition. In certain circumstances, those benefits can include home and residential health care.

New requests for home health care may require additional documentation and authorization through the Department of Labor.

Who May Qualify for White Card Home Health Services?

EEOICPA benefits are available to eligible individuals with accepted claims under the program.

Home health services generally must be medically necessary and related to an accepted work-related condition.

It may be time to talk with Alliance if you or your loved one:

  • Has an EEOICPA claim or White Card
  • Has an accepted work-related condition
  • Is having difficulty safely managing care at home
  • Needs skilled nursing
  • Needs help with personal care or daily activities
  • Is recovering from an illness or experiencing a decline in function
  • Needs ongoing care related to an accepted condition
  • Has a physician who believes in-home care may be medically necessary

Not Sure If You Qualify?

You don’t have to figure it out on your own. Contact Alliance and we’ll help you understand the referral process and what information may be needed to get started.

Important: Having a White Card does not automatically mean every home health service is covered. Eligibility and authorization are determined by the Department of Labor, and services must meet applicable program requirements.

Every person’s health and authorization are different. Alliance currently provides skilled nursing and personal care/in-home support services for eligible EEOICPA beneficiaries.

We want to help you maintain as much comfort, safety and independence as possible in the place that feels most familiar—your home.

What Conditions May Be Covered by EEOICPA?

EEOICPA coverage depends on each individual’s accepted claim, qualifying employment or exposure and applicable program requirements.

Potentially covered conditions may include:

  • Certain cancers
  • Beryllium-related disease
  • Chronic beryllium disease
  • Kidney disease
  • Chronic silicosis
  • Respiratory illnesses
  • COPD
  • Emphysema
  • Pulmonary fibrosis
  • Asbestosis
  • Certain neurological conditions
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Certain cardiac illnesses
  • Other conditions related to qualifying occupational exposure

This is not a complete list, and a diagnosis alone does not establish eligibility. The Department of Labor determines whether a condition is accepted and whether requested home health services are authorized.
