Revised Options for Death Certificate Submissions to PrePlan
Many of you are aware of the temporary revisions PrePlan made in early March due to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic for death claim submissions to our office. As of September 1, 2020, we will no longer be able to accept the temporary COVID-19 General Administration along with registered working copies of the EDRS Death Certificate in our office. We received many positive responses and going forward are pleased to announce that we can offer new options based from the feedback. These options continue to ensure our compliance on multiple levels and ensure prompt payment to your firm. You may begin using the option(s) that work best for your firm immediately.
