Claims handling for Injury Claims with injury dates from June 1, 2023 – May 31, 2025
The Leeson Group have been appointed to manage the legacy claims with an injury date from June 1, 2023 – May 31, 2025. Your unit will receive an email from the Leeson Group to access their claims portal which will show claims outstanding and an option to notify any new claims with an injury date up to May 31, 2025.
The GAA unit is still responsible for managing these claims and you will be able to upload the relevant claims documents required to resolve these claims.
The Leeson group can be contacted by phoning 353 1 914 4415 or via email Gaa.injury@leesongroup.com
Claims Administration for open claims with an injury date prior to May 31, 2023
GAA are handling any open claims with an Injury date prior to May 31, 2023. We are robustly audited on the Fund a number of times a year and questions always arise with regards to holding funds open for legacy claims. It is the intention now for the GAA to work through these cases with the relevant GAA unit to see why these cases are still open and to work on closing them off ahead of the financial year end \ year end audit.
Once we review the cases, we will be contacting the GAA unit on them. However, if any GAA unit has documentation that they wish to send on in relation to these claims, please email ciara.clarke@gaa.ie
