if the following information is submitted on a timely basis:
Itemized medical bill(s) clearly indicating the name and address of the patient

answer all applicable questions on the claim form.
GETTING STARTED
Download the claim form. You can complete the claimant information (first page) online; however, you cannot
submit the information electronically. Follow First Page instructions below and upon completion of the first

Release Information.
Your doctor must complete the Attending Physicians Statement on the Second Page. And, if you are claiming
disability, your employer must complete the Employer’s Statement found at the top of the Second Page.
FIRST PAGE
TO BE COMPLETED BY THE CLAIMANT
Please be sure to give your complete name and current mailing address on the claim form as any payment and /
or correspondence will be sent to the address indicated on the claim form.
Indicate your policy numbers on the claim form. This will help with a quicker response time.
If filing for loss due to sickness, fill in the section of the form relating to symptoms and diagnosis. For loss due to
an accidental bodily injury, please complete the Accident section of the form including a detailed description of
how the accident occurred.
If hospitalized, provide us with the name and address of the hospital including the admission and discharge
dates. Please also send a copy of the itemized hospital bill including the number of days you were an inpatient.

diagnosis, a description of how the condition originated and dates of treatment. If your claim involves disability
