Claimant Info
Full legal name, date of birth, contact, SSN or TIN as required, and relationship to insured; this establishes identity and benefits eligibility.
Accurate PIP forms reduce payment delays, support correct lien and subrogation handling, and create an auditable record for insurer review and appeals under U.S. law.
Each party has distinct responsibilities: claimants confirm facts, providers supply medical documentation, and insurers adjudicate benefits per policy and state rules.
Full legal name, date of birth, contact, SSN or TIN as required, and relationship to insured; this establishes identity and benefits eligibility.
Insurer name, policy number, policy limits, effective dates, and insured name so the carrier can confirm coverage and applicable PIP limits.
Date, time, location, description of events, and police report number where available to link medical care to the covered incident.
Treatment dates, diagnoses, providers seen, and summary of clinical care to justify medical necessity for PIP benefits.
Itemized charges, CPT/HCPCS codes, NPI/Tax ID, and provider billing contact for claims processing and payment routing.
Signed assignments and medical-record release language permitting providers to bill insurer and allowing verification of records and lien rights.
Ensure the chosen platform complies with ESIGN/UETA and any applicable privacy rules; for HIPAA-protected health information use a BAA-capable vendor.
Provide notice as soon as practicable; some carriers expect within days of loss.
Providers typically submit bills within 14–90 days; exact timing depends on state and carrier.
Carriers often acknowledge receipt within 7–30 days of claim filing.
Adjudication may take 30–60 days depending on complexity and documentation completeness.
Appeal windows and dispute processes vary by insurer and state regulation.
Export completed forms as searchable PDFs (PDF/A recommended) and keep native DOCX copies when edits may be needed for audit trails.
Save a timestamped, signed PDF with the audit trail embedded to prove signing events and signer attribution.
Store the signature certificate and action log showing timestamps, IP addresses, and signer authentication used during execution.
Attach itemized bills, clinical notes, police reports, and assignment forms; include provider contact and Tax ID for payment reconciliation.
The injured person or named insured signs attestations and authorizations confirming facts and granting permission to release medical records; minors require a parent or guardian signature per state rules.
An authorized provider representative or billing agent signs assignments and billing attestations to receive payment and to certify accuracy of itemized charges.
Verify whether the insurer or state requires a notarized signature before proceeding.
Select in-person notary or Remote Online Notarization (RON) if permitted by state rules.
For RON, use multi-factor identity proofing such as KBA or credential analysis per state RON requirements.
RON sessions usually require audio-video recording and secure retention for inspection.
Notaries must keep journal entries; retention periods vary by state (often 5–10 years).
If witnesses are required, ensure they meet state witness-count and competency rules.
Include the notarization certificate with the executed PIP packet for insurer filing.
Check state notary and DOI guidance for RON acceptance and record-keeping rules.
