These checklists are relied on by LAA processing teams and were introduced to try and reduce the number of rejected claims. But they are also useful for providers because they detail:-
- LAA requirements
- documentation LAA need
- guidance on form completion and payment rules
There are no major changes to the case submission requirements.
The introduction of the checklists for CLA escape cases:-
- adds clarity to the process
- standardises the format and approach for all controlled work escape case claims
LAA recommend that the checklists are used as a pre-submission check. If the checklist is correctly used the required information will be submitted for assessment and the matter will not be rejected.
If the checklist is not used and your claim is rejected, you can use the checklist to help ensure that there will be no further rejects.
