On Feb. 21, 2024, the cyber event reported by Change Healthcare, a company that assists healthcare providers with claims submissions and payments, has created a significant impact to health care providers, including hospitals, individual practitioners, practice groups, diagnostic centers, laboratories, and pharmacies. We have determined Aflac’s primary operations are not impacted. Further, Aflac and its subsidiaries do not have any direct connection to Change Healthcare systems in any of Aflac’s systems or applications. At this time, we are not aware of any impact to customer data but we are monitoring for any communications from our critical third-party suppliers. While Change Healthcare’s cyber event was not directed at Aflac, we will provide flexibility with claims submissions related to this incident should it be needed. If you believe you have a claim impacted by Change Healthcare’s event, please contact Aflac at 800-992-3522.

Aflac Incorporated
Commenting on the management changes, Aflac Incorporated Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Daniel P. Amos said: "I am very grateful for the many years of Hide Matsui's leadership at Aflac Japan. His work in helping us obtain our operating license in Japan more than three decades ago is just one of his many contributions to our company. I am also appreciative of Aki Kan's service as president of Aflac Japan over the last two-and-a-half years. Aki's primary mission was to help us identify the next president of Aflac Japan, and I have no doubt we have found the right person. Through his service on our board of directors, and more recently as deputy president of Aflac Japan, Tohru Tonoike has demonstrated a great understanding of our operations and business needs. Overall, I am very pleased with the management team we have in place in Japan. I look forward to their continued leadership in helping us capitalize on the opportunities in Japan's insurance market."
