DISABILITY INSURANCE / INSURANCE COVERAGE CLAIMS You may have purchased an insurance policy to protect you and your loved ones from unforeseen accidents; unfortunately, though, some companies do not live up to their promise to protect you. Some forms of bad faith claims include denied coverage or denied claims, hidden fees, discrimination, insurance fraud, and coverage disputes on any policy purchased.
A reported 43 million Americans are disabled—about 1 out of 6 persons. This means that 17% of the population is disabled, and nearly one-third (15 million) of them are senior citizens, who most often cannot take proper care of themselves without help. In 2000, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported more than one in three physicians have had patients ask them to deceive third-party payers to help the patients obtain coverage for medical services. It is not surprising, then, that insurance companies have become stricter on their policies; unfortunately, some of them are thereby withholding needed compensation and benefits to deserving individuals.
