# §10.439. What is addressed at a pre-recoupment hearing?


At a pre-recoupment hearing, the OWCP representative will consider all issues in the claim on which a formal decision has been issued. Such a hearing will thus fulfill OWCP's obligation to provide pre-recoupment rights and a hearing under [5 U.S.C. 8124(b)](/usc/5/8124.md?p=b). Pre-recoupment hearings shall be conducted in exactly the same manner as provided in [§ 10.615](/cfr/20/10.615.md) through [§ 10.622](/cfr/20/10.622.md).
