By accident means a sudden event which is the cause or a cause beyond the control of the victim and that causes a physical injury.

We put the following process steps at a glance:
1. An insured person hurts himself during an activity.
2. The club / federation provides an accident report form.
3. The accident report form is provided to the doctor, who must complete the medical certificate.
4. Send the accident report form together with any already received original expense notes (residual difference amount that you receive/apply from your regular health insurance, …) and reports to the following address: Natarajan Krishnan, Louis Gribamount 161 Box 4, Brussels; who will further send it to “SA ARENA – Tweekerkenstraat 14, 1000 BRUSSELS”; after verification.
5. Once Arena has received the documents ARENA sends you within five days an acknowledgment of receipt of all necessary information and your file number.
6. Any additional expense reports could be sent to us immediately so we do best to proceed with the charge, if the file is complete.
7. May we finally ask us to immediately report adverse developments in the healing process to ensure the earliest possible settlement of the case.

We do not want to exclude anyone; and target to perform all administrative activities diligently in this regard. We require each member-club to share the identity details of the insured person upfront, ideally before the season start. We share this information with the insurance company to avoid the risk of denial of the claim, when the need arise. BCF only act as facilitator; to enable conformity to all/different requirements set by the insurance company.

BCF has three different insurance policies from the company “Arena”; with different terms and conditions. Like any legal document describing terms and conditions, these documents are no simple to understand.
We encourage all member-club of the federation to benefit from this insurance cover. But it should be kept in-mind that the Belgian insurance company has designed this risk cover on the basic/mandatory Belgian health and civil-liability insurance coverage for the local residents.
