  • If nothing else have a basic understanding of your agreements and how they apply.
  • If you're not sure that you may be entitled to a claim, ask your representative.
  • When submitting a claim you need not include the article, your representative will include this information with his submission.
  • Be aware that time limits apply under the agreement, and they could effect the final outcome, so present the claim as soon as you can after the instance occurs. It's important to get the information and the denial to your representative as soon as you receive it.
  • Most important of all---Document--Document--Document all pertinent information related to the claim for your representative. This is paramount for a successful conclusion in the process, many claims are lost because of insufficient data.

IMPLEMENTING AGREEMENT AMARILLO TO ENID

IMPLEMENTING AGREEMENT CLOVIS TO CHILDRESS

 
As UTU members we are constantly in battle with the carrier over claims involving pay for services we perform. The carrier seems to go out of there way to find ways to violate our contract, or subvert our rates and or methods of payment. For this reason our contract provides us a means for handling disputes associated in our daily duties. We are committed to the process as it has served our membership well, and many of our members have received lucrative settlements because of the agreements in place for dealing with claims. With this in mind, a few reminders are in order, as we all have a tendency to forget some of the basics when preparing a claim before presentation to your representative.
