Best Practices: Reporting an Incident

• Accurate reporting
• Documentation
• Quality improvement

• The establishment of a claim requires written documentation. Such documentation includes, but is not limited to police reports, incident reports, witness statements and photo documentation.
• Reporting provides documentation to the exact details of an occurrence.

• Automobile Claims: All vehicle accidents regardless of fault should be reported immediately to the appropriate police agency and your immediate supervisor.
• State Tort and General Liability Claims: Notify the University of Georgia Police or local law enforcement authorities to report all incidents or events resulting in an injury or property damage that could potentially be a liability to the University of Georgia. Report all claims to Vance Silcott at the Insurance and Claims Management office within 24 hours of the incident.
• All accidents must be reported to Net Claims within 48 hours by calling 1-877-656-7475. This is a 24-hour reporting line that will gather the facts of the loss.
