Canada Claim Form

Below is an explanation of how each field on the printed Canadian Claim Form is populated.

Note: The requirements for e-claims are different than the requirements for paper claims. Printing a claim does not represent what is sent in an e-claim. Likewise information sent in an e-claim does not necessarily print on a paper claim.
