Your healthcare
insurance policy is a legally binding contract between you, the policyholder,
and your insurer. Your healthcare insurance claim is a lengthy negotiation
about how much your insurance policy should pay for your insured damages.
Contract negotiations start when you report your health loss.
Below are a few
important guidelines our public adjusters recommend to make sure your rights
and interests are protected while negotiating your health damage insurance
claim.
Meet Your Duties After a Health Loss
When you report that
you are loss your health, make sure you can prove you’re performing your duties
as required by your healthcare insurance policy, including:
- Taking realistic steps to mitigate additional damage.
- Contacting the authorities if you think a crime was dedicated.
- Securing your medical against vandalism or theft.
- Providing your insurer with prompt notification of your health loss.
- Others — check your insurance policy
Be sure you take
numerous pictures of your health damages. Note any calls between you and your
insurer. Include the date, time, name and title of anyone involved in the chat.
Define the details, the result, and anything that requires follow up. Save
invoices and receipts for any claim-related costs you incur — whether for board
up/mitigation work, additional living expenses, etc. Don’t be shy about asking
your insurer to deliver an advance on your settlement or repay your costs as
you experience them.
Bill Negotiating
your claim by tending to the details can make all the difference in resolving
your medical claim successfully, especially if a conflict arises.
Take
Charge of Your Medical Claim
One of the hardest
things to do after a house health is to achieve your insurance claim. Doing so
takes time, hands-on involvement, and a level of skill few possess. Policy
interpretation, loss assessment, construction plans and estimates, personal medical
estimate, and contract bill negotiations are just some of the skills needed in
every house health insurance claim.
Despite the
difficulties, demonstrating your ability to manage your health claim effectively
sends a clear signal to your health insurance carrier that you are not a target
for underpayment. Proactive claim management includes:
- Abiding all the requirements in your healthcare insurance policy.
- Soliciting independent bids and choosing the contractor(s) you believe will do the best work, not just submit the lowest bid(s).
- Creating a personal medical inventory.
- Tracking medical claim-related expenses.
- Proving the full value of your health damages.
- Bill Negotiating a full and fair settlement.
Be a Smart Negotiator
Understand that
how your behavior yourself at every point of contact, and whether or not your medical
claim strategy is rooted in your policy provisions, are details your insurance
company’s claims adjuster is trained to measure throughout your claim process.
Sadly, some will feat
any weaknesses you show. Others may simply lack the desire and/or skill needed
to dig deep into your loss and account for every dollar you’re owed. Either
way, a lack of proactive medical claim management typically results in a health
claim settlement.
Be a smart
negotiator. Provide plentiful documentation of your damages and proof of what
it will charge to return your medical to pre-loss condition. Connect the dots
with the supplies in your healthcare policy. Then settle for nothing less.

insurance policies confident they’ll have the protection they need, should
