Claims Management

Generally, when a claim is registered, the claim representative / adjuster has the responsibility to offer a fair settlement to the injured party subject to the maximum limits of the policy. Once the claimant and company agree on the amount of loss, the company pays that amount. If there is disagreement over the claim, the matter may go to arbitration, mediation, or court for resolution. Property Claim
In the event of loss, the policyholder calls their agent or company claims department to report the loss/file a claim. The claims representative will investigate the loss. They will determine whether a policy is in force, and prepare a repair estimate.

Liability Claim

If a third party makes a claim alleging that the policyholder is responsible for damage to/losses by the claimant, the insurance company claims representative would assess the claim, verify insurance coverage, and interview the policyholder, claimant, and the claimants medical doctor to determine theINS 22 Studyof injuries and INS 23 Study Material, Source : extent Material, 1st Edition & negligence.

Policy Renewal

Most policies (especially personal lines) run for either six months or 12 months and are renewed at the end of that period. However, policies also can be cancelled or nonrenewed by either the policyholder or the insurer. The policyholder can choose to cancel the policy during the policy period or move to another insurer at the end of the policy period. The insurer can decide to non-renew a policy if the insured has had an unacceptable number of claims, and can cancel a policy during the policy period for non-payment of premium or other specific reasons. Advance notice to the policyholder is required for cancelling the policy and for non-renewing it. 22 Study Material, 1st Edition & INS 23 Study Material, Source : INS
