How to Make a Claim

Please review your Employee Benefits Booklet to understand what your benefits cover and complete the appropriate steps below to file your claim:

Depending on the type of claim, you may be able to file online, from your smartphone, or have your service provider file electronically for you (check with your provider).

Health and Dental Claim Tips:

Before making a claim, you can view your eligibility or submit a “mock” claim to confirm your coverage, how much will be paid and any limits or conditions under your plan. There are two ways to do this:

If you or your dependents are covered under more than one benefit plan (for example, your spouse's plan), you can claim up to 100% of an eligible expense by coordinating your benefits under both plans.

How to coordinate your benefits:

  • Submit your claim under your plan first, and send any remaining balance to your spouse’s plan.
  • Your spouse's claims should go to his or her plan first, with any remaining balance sent to your plan.
  • Dependent children are covered first by the plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in the year. So, if your birthday falls in January and your spouse's birthday is in March, you should submit your child’s claims to your plan first.
  • You will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statement from the first insurance company you file with showing how much of the claim has been covered. Submit the EOB statement, along with copies of your expense receipts, to the second insurance company in order to claim any remaining eligible balance.

Not sure if a service is covered? We recommend that you get pre-authorization from us first before you receive any service valued over $300. This can help avoid surprises and out-of-pocket expenses in case a certain service isn’t covered.

Some health and dental providers can submit claims to us on your behalf, and let you know if you owe any amounts due to deductibles and reimbursement levels. Check with your provider to see if this option is available.

Once we receive your completed claim form, we will acknowledge our receipt of it within one business day. We will schedule a telephone call with the assigned disability claims specialist, and make a decision to approve—or ask for more information—within 10 business days. You will be provided with a status of your claim every 30 days until a decision is made.

We recommend submitting your completed claims forms (client + authorization, employer and physician statements) 8 weeks prior to the end of the elimination period to ensure a timely decision.

  • Complete the sections on the form that apply to you, and have your doctor complete the ‘attending physician’s’ section of the form
  • Be sure your doctor includes a specific diagnosis and indicates how your condition affects your ability to do your job
  • Your doctor will also need to list all treatments you are receiving, including surgery, medications, physiotherapy, etc.
  • Submit the form to your benefit administrator or human resources department so they can complete their section to confirm your absence

Make sure your claim form is accurate and completed in full, signed, and submitted with the paid receipt enclosed. We cannot accept photocopies and faxed receipts.

Always keep your personal information up-to-date (bank account, address, etc.) You can make updates easily by signing inOpens in new window to Online Insurance.

Ensure your Explanation of Benefits claim statements are correct and double-check receipts to be sure you received what is being charged to your plan. Providing false claim documents or exaggerating services constitutes fraud. If you realize you have made a mistake after submitting a claim, let us know right away so we can help correct the situation.
