Where to act

You'll need the Claim ID from your notice

The official claim form asks for the Claim ID (or Notice ID) the settlement mailed or emailed to the people it identified. Didn't get one? Here's how to get it:

  1. Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
  2. Still can't find it? Contact the settlement administrator (Verita Global), tell them you believe you're a class member (for example, a customer or patient in the covered period), and ask them to look you up and send your Claim ID.
