If you or someone in your household requires the use of electrically-powered medical equipment, use the request form below to be added to our medical conditions list.
 

--> Serious Medical Condition Certification Form
 
 
The form requires a physician's statement and signature. You must complete a form each year and we must receive it within 30 days of the anniversary date of the last form you sent. Otherwise, we will assume the condition no longer exists and the medical notation on your account will be removed.

We will make every effort to restore service quickly--consistent with the total restoration effort. You should always be prepared with battery- or manually-powered medical equipment. For longer outages, have a plan to receive proper care somewhere else until service is restored.
