What action should cadets take within 90 days of an injury to initiate a claim?

Submitting a completed Insurance Form at the Health Services office is the correct action for cadets to take within 90 days of an injury to initiate a claim. This form is specifically designed to capture the necessary information about the injury and the circumstances surrounding it, which is critical for processing the claim effectively. It ensures that the information is documented officially and that the claim is filed in accordance with the established protocols of the institution.

Completing this form at the Health Services office allows for proper guidance from medical personnel who can provide insights or assistance in detailing the injury. This step is vital for securing the support and possible compensation for any medical expenses related to the injury, as it aligns with the claims process set by the academy’s policies.

The other options do not directly facilitate the claim process as effectively as submitting the Insurance Form. A written complaint may not provide the specific details needed for a claim. Contacting the insurance provider directly might lead to misinformation or delays, as the initial step typically involves submitting the claim through the designated office. Lastly, visiting the Academy library for assistance does not address the immediate need to process an injury claim and is unrelated to the medical claims procedure.
