- Once the claim form is completed, the staff athletic trainer will submit it to Albright College’s secondary insurance company.
- If your primary insurance company does not pay the entire bill related to the athletic injury, it is the responsibility of the policy holder to send all itemized bills along with explanation of benefits (E.O.B) from your primary insurance to Albright College’s athletic insurance claims administrator.
