Citi Benefits Handbook
How to File a Claim
Claims must be submitted in order to receive reimbursement for charges incurred under the Plans. Many times, the claim is submitted electronically to the Claims Administrator without your intervention needed. However, you may be required to manually submit a claim for expenses to be paid or approved for reimbursement. Keep in mind that you cannot submit medical, dental, vision, HCSA, LPSA or DCSA claims for services or expenses incurred prior to the effective date of your coverage.
Listed below are the forms needed to claim benefits that may not be reimbursed automatically or paid directly. Claims should be sent to the Claims Administrators as detailed under "Claims Administrators" in the Administrative Information section. If you do not receive benefits to which you believe you are entitled, see the applicable "Claims and Appeals" subsection in the section that describes each plan at handbook.citibenefitsonline.com, available from the Citi intranet and the Internet. No password is required.
