Adding dependents to your coverage after the policy has been issued is subject to insurability requirements and requires a new application. Call your agent or contact us by email or call 800-256-8606 and we’ll connect you with your agent. Once we receive your application, we’ll carefully evaluate your application for new coverage and inform you of our decision via mail.

Please be sure all requests are submitted to our office at least 30 days before the desired effective date of coverage.

Are copies of my medical bills acceptable or do you require the original bills?

We need the actual itemized bill with the diagnosis code from your provider with a breakdown of charges for each date of service. Typically, bills you receive in the mail (balance forward statements) don’t contain enough information to process a claim. However, you should be able to obtain this information by contacting your provider’s office directly.

Do I have to fill out a claim form?

For consideration of most benefits, you need to complete a claim form either by filing your claim online in the Online Service Center or a paper claim form.

We may also need a signed Authorization to request additional information from your doctor to assist us in reviewing your claim, which is included in the claim form to help expedite the process.

Save time by uploading your claim form and supporting documentation from your Online Service Center account, or submit forms by fax at 877-365-9423 or mail to:
