You try to be a good citizen. You maintain insurance policies on your home, your boat, your car and your health. You never make a late payment and you keep your insurance agent up-to-date when changes occur. So, how does someone like you end up getting an insurance claim denied? It seems so unfair and it probably is more unfair than you know. Insurance companies don’t make any money when claims are filed, and they are in business to turn a profit. It is in the best interest of the insurance company to find ways to deny claims, and they are very good at it.
In the case of auto insurance, companies have many tricks up their sleeves. When you buy a new car, you may only have a limited amount of time to add the car to your existing policy. If you miss the deadline, well, the insurance company can deny your accident claim. You may have been in an accident and did not file the correct claim forms. Even though navigating through the claims process on your own is virtually impossible, the insurance company can still retain the right to deny your claim for car repair reimbursement.
With homeowner’s policies the tricks aren’t that much different. The terms in these insurance policies are quite confusing. You may file a claim to cover clean up costs resulting from a flooded basement. You may think you are covered because the flood came from a pipe, but if that pipe is a backed up water line from outside your home, you will be out of luck. To get that type of coverage, you need an additional rider on your policy. If you don’t have a trustworthy insurance agent, find one. It will be well worth the cost of switching policies to another company if your agent can help you file a watertight claim, so to speak.
Health insurance companies can be the most difficult of all to force into coughing up payment for a claim. Their claim denials usually come at the worst time possible, and that may be by design. If you should happen to forget to sign even one necessary document, your coverage for an important procedure can be denied. Meanwhile, your health is left hanging in the balance. So, the name of game with insurance companies is pay attention to the details, and don’t hesitate to enlist some legal help to get faster results.
The main thing to remember is that, when dealing with insurance companies, every “t” must be crossed, every “i” must be dotted, and your life will be much easier if you use an insurance company that will treat you with dignity and honesty.
