CLAIMS FOR METRA PHL
Good afternoon. After phone calls from a couple of our members asking why 528 Metra PHL folks were putting in claims per their LC, and we were not, Tom Bakr inquired with GCA. Mike Moore (GCA VGC) was unaware that we (577) had people on the PHL. As it turns out, we should have been putting them in all along, however no one at GCA notified us. So, anyone on the PHL needs to put in claims for the last 60 days (one claim for each day). ONE FOR EACH DAY. Don't wait. 60 days from date of incident is the expiration date to submit. ONLY go back 60 days.
