INSURER
CLAIMS ADMIN

Filing this form is not an admission of liability. You must report a claim to your insurer whenever anyone believes that a work-related injury or illness that requires medical care or lost time from work has occurred. If the claimed injury wholly or partially incapacitates the employee for more than three calendar days, the claim must be made on this form and reported to your insurer within ten days. Your insurer may require you to file it sooner. Failure to file within the ten days may result in penalties. Self-insured employers have 14 days to file this form with the Department of Labor and Industry (Department). It is important to file this form quickly to allow your insurer time to investigate the claim. Your insurer will forward a copy of this form to the Department, if necessary.

If the claim involves death or serious injury (including injuries that later result in death), you must notify the Department and your insurer within 48 hours of the occurrence. The claim can be reported initially to the Department by telephone (651-284-5041), fax (651-284-5731), or personal notice. The initial notice must be followed by the filing of this form within seven days of the occurrence.

Employers are required to complete this form. Each piece of information is needed to determine liability and entitlement to benefits. Failure to complete the form may result in delayed processing and possible penalties. You must file this form with your insurer, and give a copy to the employee and the employee’s local union office. You are required to provide the employee with a copy of the Employee Information Sheet, which is available on the Department’s web site at www.doli.state.mn.us. Employees are not responsible for completing this form.

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE INSURER/CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR/SELF-INSURED EMPLOYER

The following data elements must be completed on this form prior to filing with the Department of Labor and Industry: employee’s name and social security number; date of injury; and the names of the employer and insurer. If any of this information is missing, the First Report will be rejected and returned to you (per Minn. Stat. § 176.275). Providing the name of the third party administrator does not meet the statutory requirement to provide the name of the insurer. NOTE: If the claim does not involve lost time beyond the waiting period or potential PPD, the form does NOT need to be filed with the Department.

1. Item 46: Fill in the name of the insurance company. If the employer is self-insured, indicate the name of the licensed or public self-insured company or group.

2. Items 47-48: Fill in the legal name of the employer who purchased the policy from the insurer (named in Item 46) and the policy number. If the employer is licensed to self-insure, fill in the certificate number.

3. Item 49: Fill in the insurer’s Federal Employment ID number (FEIN) number.

4. Item 51: Fill in the name and address of the company administering the claim (either the insurer or third party administrator). Be sure to mark either the “Insurer” or “TPA” box.

5. Item 53-54: Fill in the claims administrator’s FEIN and claim number.
