There are many factors which influence the length of time it takes to process a claim. Complex claims submitted with several receipts and invoices related to multiple services rendered often take a longer to process. Also, claims submitted via mail will also delay processing timelines. It is recommended that you submit claims as the service is rendered for a quick reimbursement. If a claim is incomplete, it will be returned with instructions on what is required to adjudicate the claim properly.

Yes. It is important that all claims incurred under the Active Benefits Plan be submitted promptly for payment. For death benefit claims, notification should be given to OEBAC and the union within 6 months of the date of death. If it is not possible to give proof within such time limit, then the claim should be filed as soon as reasonably possible and in no event later than one year from the time proof is otherwise required. For all claims other than for death benefits, claims must be submitted to OEBAC no later than 18 months from the date you incurred the expense for you to receive reimbursement. Expenses submitted more than 18 months after the date they were incurred will not be covered by the Active Benefits Plan. If there are special circumstances that prevented you or your beneficiary from submitting the claims within this time frame, an explanation should be submitted to OEBAC, along with your claims and a completed Appeal to Trustees form, for review by the Appeals Committee.
