How the Plan Works

Your beneficiary will need to file a claim for benefits.

If you become paralyzed as a result of an accident while performing your occupation, or while traveling on company business, you will receive the applicable benefit. You’ll need to file a claim for the paralysis benefit.

If an accident results in the loss of your hand, foot, hearing, or sight, you’ll receive the applicable benefit. You’ll need to file a claim for these benefits.
