This is a reminder of important tips relating to the document upload feature for the New York State Workers' Compensation Board's (Board's) electronic filing tool, eCase. The eCase Document Upload feature allows attorneys, insurers, third-party administrators, self-insured employers, and injured workers to upload documents directly to a case folder within eCase. To ensure documents are successfully uploaded by all parties, please review the following important tips when using the eCase Document Upload tool:
-
No action will be taken by a claims examiner on documents uploaded to eCase unless they are present before and specifically addressed at the hearing. Please ensure any documents that do not meet this criteria and require action are sent to the Board per the instructions on the applicable form.
- Verify that the document does not already exist in the case folder. Do not submit a duplicate.
- Ensure you select the correct form ID from the drop-down list.
- Upload each medical service date separately using the correct form ID.
- Use form ID EXHIBIT or ATTY_CORR to upload documents that provide evidence specifically for the hearing.
- Board forms are limited to the list available on the eCase Document Upload webpage.
