is there a time limit for insurance companies to claims?

Answer 1

On health insurance claims there are time limits set forth by the insurance carrier. For instance, Medicare is December 31st of the year following the date of service. Some HMO's only give 90's from the date of service. Read your policy.

Answer 2

Hi
I think there is no particular and exact time duration for claims. But there may be a slight difference in the presentation of time and the damage caused and this will not surely affect the insured.

Answer 3

There is no hard and fast time limit for claims, from a first party (insured) point of view.

There ARE statue of limitiations in each state, which vary, about how long you have to sue someone who causes you damage. That would be a third party claim - it doesn't affect the INSURED.

Obviously, the longer you wait to file a claim, the more suspect it is, and the harder it is for you to prove that the damages occured from the event you are alleging.
