IRC Download Documents
The IRC claim option is designed primarily for claimants suffering
from serious or fatal asbestos related injuries resulting from
exposure to EPI asbestos-containing products who seek an in-depth individualized
review of the claim using basic tort system principles to determine
the severity of the injury. Claim values are modeled on historical
EPI pre-bankruptcy settlement amounts, promoting similar treatment
of similar claims over time. Payment of valid IRC claims requires
the
execution of a full and final release and the selection of either
the one-payment (70%) or two-payment plan. Claimants with less severe
injuries
may also file an IRC claim.
To file a claim, please follow these steps:
- Complete the standardized IRC claim form in its entirety and sign the certification
of accuracy and completeness at the end of the form.
- Attach the required medical documentation supporting the alleged injury.
- Return the completed form
and required documentation to the CPF.
Failure to complete the entire form and/or
submit the required documentation will delay the processing of the claim.
Claimants should describe the exposure history in as much
detail as possible. Claims
must be timely filed with the CPF within the applicable statute
of limitations.
