INSTRUCTIONS / DEFINITIONS
This form is used to communicate all allowable options the Sender of workers’ compensation data will provide to the Colorado Division of Workers’
Compensation (DOWC). DOWC is responsible for providing the information on the Receiver form, indicating all their requirements and where
applicable, the supported options from which the Sender can select. The Sender will then complete the Sender’s Response form providing data in the
allotted spaces and indicating selections where the Receiver provides choices. This information is then returned to the Receiver.
Although one profile will satisfy most needs, it should be noted that if transmission parameters vary by transaction set IDs, you could specify those
differences by providing more than one profile.
Receiver Name, Receiver FEIN, Receiver Postal Code, Profile ID and Description will be pre-filled by DOWC.
