Tip of the Month - Claims Coordination Process

Alera and MNL work together to coordinate and share claims information, helping simplify administration for employers and ensuring a smoother experience for employees.

When an employee transitions from PFML to Short‑Term or Long‑Term Disability, MNL may need additional medical or supporting information. Disability claims typically require more detailed documentation than PFML, and in some cases, additional information is necessary to confirm eligibility and continue benefits under the group disability policy.

Key Billing Reminders

PFML premiums are billed and remitted on a monthly basis. Employers are required to report key data including total lives and covered monthly volume on the billing remittance worksheet and submit payment according to the established schedule. Payments should be sent to the designated billing address, and employers should be prepared to complete the annual census as part of ongoing requirements. Check out our FAQs for more details.
