Standard Informal Transmittal

One of the most cumbersome procedures in the entire application pipeline is the informal process. Some of the issues in the informal process that are causing problems include missing information, no standardization, no summarization of attending physicians information, and no prior placement information.

In response, NAILBA created the Standard Informal Transmittal as another step to improving the informal process. In addition, we have asked our carrier partners to commit to a turnaround of 7 or less business days with a properly submitted informal (with summaries) using this new document.
