Simplebatch is a way for users to upload a batch of Claimant and/or Claim information to eClaims. Users will be able to create a spreadsheet using the Microsoft Excel program and to upload this file to eClaims for processing.
The following instructions provide the technical requirements for submissions in the Simplebatch process and do not set forth the requirements of North American Refractories Company Asbestos Personal Injury Settlement Trust (the "NARCO Asbestos Trust") for statute of limitations or any other purpose. Please refer to the NARCO Asbestos Trust’s documents and announcements at www.narcoasbestostrust.org and www.claimsres.com for further information.
How it Works
Simplebatch is simply an Excel spreadsheet formatted in such a way that eClaims can recognize the correct fields and extract the data. For this reason you must use the template provided by CRMC to create your spreadsheet. Just creating a spreadsheet with the same column names as the template will not work.You must use the template!
Creating a Batch requires the following steps:
Opening the template provided by CRMC
Fill out the template
See below for instructions for filling out the template
*save your batch as a .xlsx file!
*If this is the first time submitting you must submit a test batch before the upload option is available. Information on submitting a test batch.
Filling out the template is slightly different depending on the type of claims you are filing. Make sure you select the correct template.
Use the NAR-Simplebatch.xltx template for ER claims.
In some rare cases a claimant may need to file a claim that should be classified as a pre-established liquidated claim. If this is the case, please use the NAR-PelClaims-Simplebatch.xslx template. Please see our website for more information about this.
The Simplebatch tool is available for new or previously submitted Individual Review claims. However, the information submitted will not appear on the eClaims system until a later date. Documents may be submitted using the box account function. Use the NAR-IRClaims-SimpleBatch.xltx template to file IR claims.
*If you have any questions please contact CRMC by phone (800)536-2722 or by email inquiry@claimsres.com. We also offer alternative methods for data upload, please contact us for further information.
