Additional evidence
It helps us progress the claim as fast as possible when we receive all available medical evidence alongside the claim.
Employers, please ask your employee to provide any medical evidence they may have relating to their critical illness event along with their claim form.
This evidence could include:
- Medical reports from consultants
- Prescriptions
- Photographs of medicine labels
- Virtual GP notes
- GP information accessed via online portal.
Base or extra cover?
Please remember that Unum policies have cover available for both base and extra groups of conditions. This impacts which critical illness events you can claim for. The policy will detail whether base or extra cover is in place. If you are not sure please speak to your employer/HR representative/plan administrator.
