First, we must report the case in time:
The first step in insurance claims is to report the case. According to the provisions of the insurance contract, when the subject matter insured is damaged or an insurance accident occurs, the applicant, the insured, the beneficiary and their entrusted agents shall notify the insurance company as soon as possible, otherwise the losses caused thereby shall be borne by the beneficiary himself. Under normal circumstances, the insured shall notify the insurance company within 10 days after the occurrence of the insurance accident, but due to the different claims limits of various types of insurance, it is necessary to report the case in time according to the provisions of the insurance contract to prevent their own interests from being lost.
If the applicant reports the case by oral notice, he must fill in a formal danger notice afterwards. When reporting a case, the following issues should be explained in detail: the basic information of the informant and the insured, the time, place, cause, process and result of the insured accident, etc.
Second, in line with the scope of responsibilities:
After reporting the case, the insurance company or salesman will inform the customer whether the accident falls within the scope of insurance liability. Customers can also reconfirm by reading the insurance clauses, consulting an agent or calling the insurance company hotline. Insurance companies only compensate the insured for the losses caused by the risks within the scope of responsibility, and do not provide protection for the exclusions in the insurance clauses, such as suicide within two years, the insured and the insured's crimes and intentional acts.
Third, prepare the required documents:
In order to prevent people from making unfounded or exaggerated claims, insurance companies will definitely ask the insured to provide evidence of loss and explain the details within the specified time. No matter what kind of insurance, the beneficiary must prepare the original insurance policy, the original identity documents of the insured and the beneficiary (ID card, household registration officer's card, soldier's card) and the invoice for the latest premium payment. If you entrust others to handle claims, you must also fill in the power of attorney.
Fourth, prepare the list of medical practitioners:
If the insured has basic medical insurance and part of the social security has been reimbursed, it is necessary to show the insurance company the medical expense reimbursement split form issued by the social security in advance, and indicate the total medical expenses paid and the expenses paid by the social security, and hand it over to the insurance company together with the original copy of the document, and the insurance company will make claims within the remaining medical expenses according to the above materials.
Fifth, carry out accident investigation:
After all the data were collected, the claims department of the insurance company began to investigate. The insurance company may require customers to cooperate with the company in the investigation and provide additional materials and evidence. If the insured conceals the medical history when applying for insurance, or the insured does not have his own signature, it will bring obstacles to the smooth progress of claims. Finally, the insurance company will review, calculate and determine the compensation amount, and notify the customer to receive the insurance money. [4]
