How to Apply for Accident Benefits

We understand that you were injured in the accident that occurred on November 6, 2023. Please find
the attached Application Package to assist you, if necessary, in applying for benefits that may be
available to you under the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS).

If you intend to apply for benefits under the SABS, please notify us within 7 days. This is important as
a failure to notify us may impact your entitlement to the benefit.

If you will not be making an accident benefits claim, the enclosed forms do not need to be returned to
us.

Understanding the Claims Process


The enclosed coverage summary outlines the benefits you may be eligible for under the SABS.

Most of the claim forms will require your signature. To prevent the unauthorized use of your
signature throughout the claims process, we recommend that you do not sign blank forms. This will
ensure that you remain aware of any recommendations that are made in response to the injuries
associated with your claim.

We will contact you after we receive your completed Application for Accident Benefits Form (OCF-1).
Before beginning any medical or rehabilitation program, contact us as some expenses require pre-
approval.

To avoid any delays, please include your name and claim number on any future correspondence.

If you have any questions, contact me at kaitlin_mitchell@cooperators.ca or 1-905-434-4042.

Sincerely,

ONTARIO – ACCIDENT BENEFITS
Coverage Summary – Policies Issued on or after June 1, 2016

What are Accident Benefits?


• Sometimes referred to as “no-fault benefits”, these benefits assist clients injured in auto
accidents regardless of fault.
• Covers out of pocket medical and rehabilitation expenses that are reasonable and necessary.
• Depending upon your circumstances, you may also qualify for a weekly benefit.
• The attendant care benefit provides limited coverage for incurred expenses if you are unable to
care for yourself following the accident.

Accident Benefits Application Package


• The Accident Benefits Application Package is enclosed for your use. If you intend to make a
claim, please return the completed Application for Accident Benefits (OCF-1) to me within 30
days. This completed form is required in order to pay benefits under the policy.
• The Package contains several other forms, as follows:
o Employer’s Confirmation of Income (OCF-2) – related to Income Replacement Benefits.
o Disability Certificate (OCF-3) – used in relation to claims for Weekly Benefits and
Housekeeping & Home Maintenance benefits.
o Permission to Disclose Health Information (OCF-5) – consent form which allows us to
request medical information necessary to determine your eligibility for benefits.
o Treatment Confirmation Form (OCF-23) – used to claim pre-approved treatment under
the Minor Injury Guideline.

• If you do not intend to make a claim for Accident Benefits, you do not have to return any
forms.

Where do I send the Completed Forms?


• There are rules in Ontario for determining which insurance company will be responsible for
paying an individual’s Accident Benefits claim. For instance, these rules indicate that the
insurance company where the person is a named insured or spouse/dependent of a named
insured would be required to pay instead of the insurance company where the person was a
passenger or involved in an accident with another vehicle.
• You can submit your completed forms to us or to any policy where you are an insured person.
The first insurer to receive the completed OCF-1 will handle your claim.
• If we receive your OCF-1 and we believe there may be a “higher priority” insurer that should be
responsible for paying your claim then we will investigate further and put the other insurer(s) on
notice for dispute. We will continue to handle your claim pending the outcome of the dispute.

Page 1 of 4
What Medical Expenses are Covered? How do I Claim?
• Goods and services recommended by a Health Practitioner (for example, a doctor or
physiotherapist) that are reasonable and necessary for your treatment and recovery (for
instance, physical therapy, medications, dental, etc.).
• Goods and services generally require prior approval from your insurer unless you are being
treated within the Minor Injury Guideline.
• Your health practitioner may submit a Treatment Confirmation Form (OCF-23) for pre-approved
treatment within the Minor Injury Guideline, or they may submit a Treatment and Assessment
Plan (OCF-18) for other goods and services. Your health practitioner should review their
recommendations with you and you will need to sign indicating your consent for their
submission. We recommend that you do not sign blank forms.
• The Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule considers other benefits to be primary. Your expenses
must be submitted first to any extended health benefits you have available. We will cover the
portion of approved expenses not otherwise covered by other benefit plans.

What is the Minor Injury Guideline?

• The Minor Injury Guideline allows for up to $2,200 of pre-approved treatment if you have
suffered a “minor injury”.
• Minor Injury means one or more of a sprain, strain, whiplash associated disorder, contusion,
abrasion, laceration or subluxation and includes any clinically associated sequelae (a condition
occurring as a result of another condition or event) to such an injury.
• An overall limit of $3,500 will apply if you suffer a predominantly minor injury and there is no
compelling evidence of a pre-existing medical condition that was documented by a health
practitioner before the accident and that will prevent you from achieving maximal recovery if
subject to the $3,500 limit or if limited to the goods and services authorized under the Minor
Injury Guideline.
• There is no coverage for attendant care benefits or in-home assessments if you have sustained a
minor injury.

What Limits Apply to the Medical, Rehabilitation and Attendant Care Benefits?
Type of Injury Sustained Medical, Rehabilitation and Attendant Care Benefits
Minor Injury $3,500 limit for Medical and Rehabilitation (5 year time limit);
$0 payable for Attendant Care
Non-Catastrophic Injury $65,000 combined limit (5 year time limit)
Catastrophic Injury $1,000,000 combined limit (no time limit)

If you are covered by optional medical, rehabilitation and/or attendant care benefits, additional
coverage above the standard benefits may be available.

Page 2 of 4
What are Weekly Benefits?
• There are 3 types of weekly benefit – Income Replacement Benefit (IRB), Non-Earner Benefit
(NEB) and Caregiver Benefit (CGB).
• Income Replacement Benefit (IRB):
o Compensates for lost income if you are substantially unable to perform the essential
tasks of your job.
o Applies if you were employed or self-employed on the date of the accident; or if you are
16 or older and worked at least 26 of the 52 weeks prior to the accident or you were
receiving Employment Insurance benefits on the date of the accident.
o Covers 70% of your gross pre-accident income, to a maximum of $400/week (unless you
purchased an optional IRB prior to the accident).
o Collateral benefits (i.e. short-term disability) and subsequent income are deductible.
o There is no payment for the first week of disability.
• Non-Earner Benefit (NEB):
o Compensates if you are completely unable to carry on a normal life and do not qualify
for an IRB. The benefit is also available if you were employed or self-employed and you
were a full-time student or a recent graduate.
o $185 per week.
o There is no payment for the first 4 weeks, or for more than 104 weeks after the
accident. The benefit is not payable before the insured person turns 18 years old.
• Caregiver Benefit (CGB):
o This benefit is only available if you sustained a catastrophic impairment or as an
optional benefit.
o Compensates for additional expenses incurred if you are the main caregiver of a child
under 16 or other person residing with you who needs care and you are substantially
unable to continue to provide that care as a result of the accident.
o Covers expenses up to $250/week, plus $50/week for each additional person in need of
care.

How do I Claim a Weekly Benefit?


• The Application for Accident Benefits (OCF-1) is your application. The Disability Certificate
(OCF-3) should be submitted with your Application as it will assist us in determining if you meet
the test of disability.
• Please complete Parts 1-4 of the Disability Certificate (OCF-3) yourself, then provide to your
Health Practitioner (i.e. doctor) to complete the balance.
• If you are claiming an Income Replacement Benefit then we will require information to allow us
to calculate your benefit. Please complete Parts 1-3 of the Employer’s Confirmation of Income
(OCF-2) form and provide it to your employer(s) to fill in the remainder.

Page 3 of 4
• If you qualify for more than one of these weekly benefits then you will need to elect which
benefit you wish to claim using the Election of Income Replacement, Non-Earner or Caregiver
Benefits (OCF-10) form.

What Other Benefits are Available?


• Expenses of Visitors provides limited coverage for expenses of certain family members who visit
you during your treatment or recovery.
• Lost Educational Expenses – up to $15,000 in incurred expenses if you were enrolled in school
and you are unable to continue the program as a result of the accident.
• Repair or replace items lost or damaged such as clothing, prescription eyewear, dentures,
hearing aids, prostheses or other medical or dental devices.
• Reasonable cost of examinations – these costs come out of your medical and rehabilitation
benefits limit.
• Housekeeping and home maintenance may be available if you sustained a catastrophic
impairment or if the optional benefit is applicable to you.
• Death and Funeral benefits.

Optional Benefits
• Optional benefits provide additional coverage. They must be purchased before the accident.
• The optional benefits are: Increased Income Replacement; Caregiver, Housekeeping and Home
Maintenance; Dependant Care; Increased Medical, Rehabilitation and Attendant Care; Optional
Catastrophic Benefit; Increased Death and Funeral; and Optional Indexation Benefit.

What if I have Questions?


• Please contact your Accident Benefits Claims Representative. They will be happy to answer your
questions and to assist you in any way they can.
