In this article, we will cover everything you need to know about insurance claims rejections and what you can do to try and get your insurer to cover your rejected claims.<\/p>\n<div class='code-block code-block-1' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<p><button class=\"mo-modal-open\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/WP-Banner-revamp-final-20221207_1.-Single-final.jpg\" alt=\"Individual health insurance banner\" width=\"1138\" height=\"493\" \/><\/button><\/p><\/div>\n\n<h2><strong>5 Reasons for Insurance Claim Rejections<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When your insurance claim is rejected, there is no need to feel dejected. Remember that insurance providers are stickers for details. When your claim is rejected it is important to review your claims application and your policy details to see if anything is out of place.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019ve had a claim rejected in the past or you\u2019re completely new to the world of insurance, it pays to get inside your insurers\u2019 head and understand why claims are rejected.<\/p>\n<p>As a global insurance broker, Pacific Prime has over two decades of experience. We\u2019ve helped clients handle claim rejections, and here are our top 5 reasons for why claim rejections occur.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Your <\/strong><strong>I<\/strong><strong>nsurance <\/strong><strong>A<\/strong><strong>pplication <\/strong><strong>C<\/strong><strong>ontains <\/strong><strong>F<\/strong><strong>alse <\/strong><strong>I<\/strong><strong>nformation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you didn\u2019t (or the insurer believes that you didn\u2019t) answer all the questions on the insurance application form truthfully and accurately, such as failing to disclose a pre-existing medical condition, then the insurer might reject your claim.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. You <\/strong><strong>D<\/strong><strong>idn\u2019t <\/strong><strong>R<\/strong><strong>ead the <\/strong><strong>F<\/strong><strong>ine Print of Your Insurance Policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Insurance plans can vary from policy to policy, so it\u2019s always important to read the policy details. In particular, you should refer to the table of benefits and any exclusions so that you\u2019re crystal clear about what is and isn\u2019t covered.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of some of the most common health insurance exclusions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Conditions developed due to misuse of drugs or alcohol<\/li>\n<li>Experimental or unproven care<\/li>\n<li>Fertility treatment or testing<\/li>\n<li>Plastic and cosmetic surgery<\/li>\n<li>Treatment of psychological conditions<\/li>\n<li>Termination of pregnancy unless medically prescribed<\/li>\n<li>AIDS or HIV related diseases.<\/li>\n<li>Contraception, including sterilization<\/li>\n<li>Epidemics that are under the direction of the authorities<\/li>\n<li>Obesity treatments<\/li>\n<li>Sexual dysfunction<\/li>\n<li>Injuries inflicted whilst committing a terrorist act<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>3. Proper Claims Process Was Not Followed<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The claims process may be extremely bureaucratic &#8211; the last thing you want to deal with when you\u2019re recovering from a medical treatment &#8211; so it\u2019s unsurprising if you aren\u2019t able to follow the claims process down to the tee. However, this can be a reason for a claims rejection.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Incorrect Details on Your Claim Form<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Similarly, you may have put down incomplete or inaccurate details on your claim form. Regardless of whether you did it intentionally or by mistake, there\u2019s a high chance your claim will be rejected.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Your Insurer Refuses to Pay the Full Amount<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes the insurer will reject your claim by refusing to pay the full amount. Instead, they will pay part of the amount. This may be because your insurance policy doesn\u2019t have a high enough coverage or if you have (or the insurer believes that you have) inflated the value of your claim.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2 Steps to <\/strong><strong>T<\/strong><strong>ake if <\/strong><strong>Y<\/strong><strong>our <\/strong><strong>C<\/strong><strong>laim is <\/strong><strong>R<\/strong><strong>ejected<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The first thing to do when your claim is rejected by your insurer is to remain calm, keep in mind that claim rejections are not the end of the world, there are still things you can try to get your claim approved. If your claim is rejected, try using the following 2 steps to rectify the situation.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. <\/strong><strong>Review Your Insurance Policy Documents<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When your claim is rejected, your insurer will also provide you with the reason why your claim is rejected. This is a good time to start by fact-checking. Review your insurance policy documents thoroughly to see if the insurance claim rejection was fair or unfair.<\/p>\n<p>If you believe it\u2019s unfair, you should:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure you gave your insurer all the correct details, in both your insurance application and in your claim form.<\/li>\n<li>Highlight the exact wording in your policy that disproves the insurer\u2019s reason for rejecting your claim. Is the wording ambiguous or poorly explained? Note that down too.<\/li>\n<li>Find any other documentation\/evidence that relates to your policy or can be evidence to disprove the insurer\u2019s reason for rejecting your claim.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>2. <\/strong><strong>Get in Touch with Your Insurer<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>After reviewing your insurance policy document, you can call your insurer and ask to speak to their complaint handlers. Alternatively, you can also write a formal letter of complaint and send it to the contact provided in the insurer\u2019s complaints procedure.<\/p>\n<p>The next step is to wait for the complaint to go through the insurer\u2019s internal review process. You can also ask for details of this and periodic status updates if you prefer. Do note that the complaints procedure might take a while.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: This is where having an insurance broker like Pacific Prime by your side can really help. As brokers are impartial, we can deal with the insurer on your behalf, which saves you time and hassle.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Writing a Complaint Letter<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019re dealing with the insurer directly and wish to write a complaint letter, There are a few tips and tricks that can help your case, from something as simple as making sure the word \u201ccomplaint\u201d is written on top to evidence to prove your case.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few things to include in the letter:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date<\/li>\n<li>Policyholder name and policy number<\/li>\n<li>Make sure the word \u2018Complaint\u2019 written clearly at the top<\/li>\n<li>Clear explanation of your complaint, state clearly why you think your claim shouldn\u2019t have been rejected<\/li>\n<li>Supporting evidence for your claim<\/li>\n<li>Information on what you\u2019d like the insurer to do to put things right<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Simplify Your Claims Process with Pacific Prime<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As you probably have realized, dealing with insurers is no piece of cake.
