the processing of your claim.
1.
You need to personally complete Section A, the Authorization to
Obtain Information. Please be sure that you have passed (or will
pass) your elimination period before filing for disability. This is usually 0,
7 or 30 days elimination for accidents and depends on your choice at the time
of enrollment. If you are unsure which
elimination period you have elected please call AFLAC at 800-992-3522 so you
can be provided with this information.
2.
Section B and C need to be completed in full by the physician who treated
you. Please be sure no sections
are left uncompleted unless they do not apply.
It is very important that the physician includes
the date of the accident and a description of how the accident occurred (in
Section B). In many cases this
information is not completed accurately and results in a delay of your claim
because AFLAC must receive physician verification that the disability
was caused by an accident.
3.
Section D is to be completed by your employer.
After you
have sent your claim please deal directly with AFLAC Claims Department by calling
1-800-992-3522 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please have your policy number ready so you
can be assisted promptly. Also, if
you have any questions regarding your claim or if you simply want personal
assistance please feel free to call me at 561-776-0098.
