Utah Accident & Health Survey

Instructions & form

The Utah Accident & Health Survey is a required state specific annual filing. The purpose of this survey is to provide more detailed information on Utah accident and health business than is currently reported on the Utah State page of the NAIC Annual Statement.

Who is required to file?

Fraternal, Health, Life and Property & Casualty insurers who report accident & health business in Utah on the Utah State page of the NAIC Annual Statement are required to file this survey. All other insurers are exempt. The completed survey is due April 1, 2024. Failure to file by the deadline may subject your company to the enforcement penalties under Utah Code § 31A-2-308.

Status of the survey for data year 2023

The Utah Accident & Health Survey has been updated for 2023. The Short-Term Limited Duration Supplement data collection has ended and is no longer required. Please review the instructions and survey forms carefully so that you will understand how to report your data. This will save time and reduce the number of corrections after the survey is filed. However, as always, we will work with you to understand and file the survey form.

The Utah Insurance Department will only accept electronic submissions of the Utah Accident & Health Survey as an Excel spreadsheet via the UID secure file upload website at https://portal.uid.utah.gov/sifeAll survey files should be uploaded to the “Health Research” folder. Do not use another folder to submit your files.

Any other forms of data submission are not acceptable. Also, do not make any changes to the formatting of the Excel survey form. This file is designed to allow us to import your data directly into a software database while attempting to remain “user friendly”. Any changes to the line numbers, columns, or other parts of the survey form (other than simple data entry) may cause errors when we import your survey form.

Please remember each insurer is required to file a complete survey. In cases where your company has nothing to report, answer with a “0” rather than leaving a section blank. To make this easier, we have pre-populated the survey with sample data, so that you can change just the sections that are applicable to your company. This includes providing a contact person, with correct contact information, including a valid telephone number and email address.

Please note that all data in the survey form should be whole numbers. The use of decimals creates rounding errors when the data is processed.

Also, please only submit one company per Excel form. Filings with multiple companies in multiple Excel sheets will not import correctly.
