FILING A CLAIM

For most medical services out-of-network, and

sometimes outside the U.S., you will have to pay

for your care and file a claim for reimbursement

(unless a direct settlement arrangement has been

set up with a participating hospital). You can submit

a claim electronically or using a paper form.

1

To submit an online claim, log on to

www.aetnainternational.com

and click the

“Submit Claim” tab. Complete a

Request for

Medical/Dental Benefits

form and follow the

instructions to submit your claim electronically.

If you prefer to submit your claim via fax, email

or mail:

a. Copy all fully-itemized medical bills and

receipts on letter-sized paper. Be sure all

copies are legible. Bills and receipts should

include:

– Patient’s name and relationship to

employee,

– Provider name, address and telephone

number,

– Date of service,

– Amount charged,

– Procedure(s) performed, and

– Diagnosis/nature of illness (if this is

not included, you may write it on the

bill/receipt; please sign and date any

handwritten notes).

b. Write your Social Security number or

assigned identification number on each

piece of paper.

c. If faxing, include a fax coversheet with the

date, total number of faxed pages and your

contact information (phone number, fax

number and/or email address).
