How to File a Claim for an Athletic Injury:

1.  An injured student should seek treatment from a licensed medical provider within 60 days of an injury.

2.  Obtain an accident claim form from your school or district website or download a claim form from our claims administrator’s website:  www.k12studentinsurance.com.  Print off the claim form and the instruction page. The claim cannot be processed without a fully completed claim form. 

3.  Follow the instructions included with the claim form. Fill in all the information on the claim form, sign it and have a school official sign it if they witnessed the accident.  Send the claim form and itemized bills within 90 days of the date of an accident to the claims address located at the top of the claim form. 

4.  Send Itemized Bills (Forms UB-04, UB-92 or CMS 1500) that have the CPT or Diagnostic Codes from each medical provider included.  CPT or Diagnostic codes are required for processing a claim. 

5.  If you have other applicable medical insurance you must also file with that company.  When you receive your Explanations of Benefits (EOB’s) from your Primary Insurance, forward these to the claims office listed at the top of the claim form.   Be sure to KEEP A COPY of all claims paperwork for your records.

6.  Filing an accident claim after an injury is YOUR responsibility.  Do not assume that your medical provider or a school official will file the accident claim form for you.
