You are required to update your Meritain Coordination of Benefits information every year so that they can properly process your claims.
Coordination of Benefits information confirms whether you and/or your enrolled dependents have insurance coverage other than your employer's and if so, what that other insurance is, so that they can determine proper payment responsibilities for claims. If your Coordination of Benefits is updated yearly or as requested, your claims will be processed.
