Helpful Tips for Filing Your Claim
1
. Complete, sign and date the FSA Request for Reimbursement Form. Failure to complete all areas will result in claim rejection and a delay in
processing and reimbursement. Do not indicate "See Attached" in any field. Descriptions of service should provide as much detail as possible.
If a provider certification is used, the provider must sign and date each new claim form.
2
. Submit documentation that is clear and legible. Do not highlight information; these areas often turn black when scanned. In addition, double
check to make sure all documentation is clearly visible and not overlapped, written through, or cut off if photocopied.
3. Verify that services received are eligible expenses. See below or refer to your Participant Handbook for general guidance.
4. The deadline or run-off period for claims submission is determined by your employer. For more information on the run-off period, refer to your
employer or your Summary Plan Description. To avoid delays, submit your claims at least two weeks prior to the end of your run-off period.
5. Additional reimbursement forms can be obtained at aflac.com or via the IVR at 1-877-353-9487.
