Acute Lower Respiratory Infection Claims: Documents Required

To file a claim for Acute Lower Respiratory Infection, ensure you submit these documents.

Chest X-Ray Report

Why is it important?

If you received treatment for acute lower respiratory infection and are applying for a reimbursement claim, please submit your chest X-ray report confirming respiratory infections and supporting hospitalisation claims.

  •  A disease confirmation 
  • Medical proof to avoid any fraud
  • Evidence on the necessity for treatment and hospitalisation
How to get this document?

You can instantly get the test report upon conducting a chest X-Ray. Request your doctor/hospital for the report if the test has been done already. You can also schedule a test at an imaging facility and get the results.
