Submit a Benefit Check

2. Submit a Benefit Check

A benefit check is a form you complete to verify medical insurance coverage before you spend the time showing it to the family, trialing it with the client or student, or writing the speech evaluation. In many cases, we provide benefit details the same day the benefit check request is submitted.
