We will analyze one of the basic concepts in the sphere of providing insurance services, which is insurance compensation. What does this concept mean, what is it defined?
Insurance compensation is athe actual amount that will be paid to the client of the company in the event of an event or a situation stipulated by the insurance contract. On the example of the same insurance of motor third-party liability, it can be noted that the amount within which the damage caused by an accident will be compensated, and there is an insurance indemnity.
Naturally, the amount of cash that is payable, can be adjusted taking into account a number of conditions:
- The amount of compensation can not exceed the costdamage that actually was inflicted on the property of the insured, unless the contract provides for the payment of a specific amount, regardless of the circumstances.
- Reimbursement will also be reduced if the insurance amount of the object is lower than its insured value (unless otherwise provided by the insurance policy).
- In case of insurance of one object from several insurers, insurance compensation received from all insurers can not be higher than the actual value of the property.
- The amount of compensation is subject to payment regardless of payments under other contracts (social payments or compensation for harm to health).
In modern reality, cases when the policyholder is denied payment of insurance compensation are not uncommon. Such a decision may be caused by the following circumstances:
- Untimely notification of the company about the occurrence of the insured event.
- Incomplete package of documents provided as confirmation.
- Corrections in the insurance policy.
- Non-insurance case.
