Application for Membership

                                               OTIP LTD Claim Information

We are pleased to let you know that we’ve updated the OTIP LTD Claim Application – Member Statement and Attending Physician’s Statement of Disability forms. Both forms were revised to ensure all critical details necessary for a claims assessment are included.

A complete LTD Claim application must include:

  • OTIP LTD Claim Application – Member Statement
  • Attending Physician’s Statement of Disability
  • Direct Deposit Authorization form  (no change has been made)
  • Plan Administrator Statement form  (no changes)

The revised OTIP LTD Claim Application – Member Statement form is now accessible on our website.

To reduce the administrative burden for treating physicians, we have revised the Attending Physician’s Statement of Disability form and consolidated the previous two forms into one. These new forms are effective immediately. Claim forms with a date version before December 2024 (or no dates at all) should be discarded.

Please note, no changes have been made to the Direct Deposit Authorization form.

To obtain the most current forms please access them via our website.
