Delayed Disability Claims Clause Samples
The Delayed Disability Claims clause establishes procedures and requirements for handling disability claims that are not filed immediately after an incident or onset of disability. Typically, this clause outlines the time frame within which a claim must be submitted and may specify the documentation or proof required if a claim is delayed. Its core function is to ensure that both parties understand the process for late claims, thereby reducing disputes and providing clarity on the insurer’s obligations in cases where notification is not prompt.

For any period of total disability and where either the employee's Workers' Compensation or Accident and Sickness Insurance claim has been delayed, the employee will, subject to completing an assignment form agreeing to reimburse the Company, receive an amount equal to the anticipated benefit for a period not exceeding sixty (60) calendar days.
