Frequently asked questions

Who completes the physician section of MetLife JY5334?

The attending physician completes page 2, the Attending Physician's Statement, and signs it with printed name, address and phone. The employee and employer complete page 1, and the employee's signature authorizes the physician to release information requested for the claim.

What dates does MetLife need from the physician?

The date from which the patient has been continuously disabled and unable to work, the date they were or will be able to return to work, the dates of office, home and hospital treatment, and the date of any surgery. The employee separately reports the date first disabled and any hospital admission and discharge.

Does JY5334 cover disability from pregnancy?

Yes. The physician section asks whether the condition is due to pregnancy, the expected delivery date, the date and manner if the pregnancy has ended, and whether the patient had a totally disabling complication of pregnancy, with the full diagnosis or details of that complication.
