Medical reimbursement?

Medical reimbursement? File for it already!

Some of us don’t file medical claims with the insurance company in a timely fashion. We all need the money so why put it off?

Try this system for staying on top of the process:

Step 1: Get organized. Set up five folders and label them: “to be processed,” “submitted claims,” “completed claims,” “claims forms and envelopes,” and “insurance correspondence.”

Step 2: Don’t lose forms. As soon as you or a family member returns from a medical visit, file the bill into the “to be processed” file.

Step 3: Set aside a regular time for claims. Schedule one or two permanent days every month to attend to the claims. Write it down in your appointment book for the year so you don’t forget.

Remember to keep accurate records and copies of everything. This will be a life saver when something isn't received or lost etc.

Thanks for the information, this is an excellent way to make sure that you file what you need to and to keep track of what you have done at each step of the process.

Having a system for doing all things of this nature is very important and the more simplified the process the better.

This also applies to all things that need to be done. And can even be applied to your monthly bill paying processes.
