When should I notify MagMutual of an incident or claim?
It is essential that you notify MagMutual immediately if any incident occurs that may lead to action against you. The more familiar you are with the following information and guidelines, the better able we will be to provide you with expert claim handling.
How do I report an incident or claim?
You can submit a claim quickly and easily online by logging into our portal, MyMagMutual, using the login or register buttons below. If your organization has a workers' compensation policy, you will see a separate button for workers’ compensation claims once you're in the portal.
As an alternative, you may email a completed Incident Report Form to [email protected] or fax it to 404-842-9556. Please include all relevant medical records, correspondence and legal documents. This form contains protected health information that must be safeguarded and may only be transmitted by a secure, encrypted email system. If you do not have a secure, encrypted email system, please submit your claim via MyMagMutual.
