Role of the Claims Examiner

The Insurance industry is well-structured with many companies offering to insure homes and businesses; every property damage claim that is filed must be reviewed by a claims examiner that works for the insurance company. Every year Insurance Companies pay out a large amount of claims filed by policy holders, and that is why they employ professional examiners to check whether all details and paper work of the claims are accurate. As a policy holder, you should also hire a claims examiner, also known as a Public Adjuster, to make sure the insurance company pays all the money to put your home or business back to pre-loss condition. The insurance company claims examiner will only pay what the insurer will allow, and without anyone on your side, they will pay as little as possible.

Evaluation of Insurance Claims and Applications

As an individual, it is not in your best interest to deal directly with the Insurance Claims Examiner, because they have a great deal of influence on whether the insurer cover loses or not. They do the work of evaluation and examining of the applications that are submitted on a daily basis, they also follow up on what insurance adjusters have done to verify the accuracy of each claim. They work round the clock to ensure that Insurers don’t lose money to claims that aren’t justified, and they attempt to save money for the insurance company by paying as little as possible for each claim.

Examiners in Different Insurance Classes

Although all Examiners do the same kind of work no matter if they work for the Insurance Companies or the policy holders, they differ depending on the class of insurance they work on. Medical insurance examiners only deals with medical claims where they verify medication and the treatment, they also visit health institutions to ensure that claims filed are accurate. Life insurance Examiners mostly deal with causes of death, and or related life matters before a claim is settled. Auto insurance Examiners only reviews and evaluate damages on vehicles, and how accidents have occurred. Examiners are specialized depending on the kind of insurance examination they are involved with. Public Adjuster claims examiners work for you, the policy holder, as a way to ensure you are represented at the same level the Insurance Company is represented by the claims examiner that works for them. Why would you let the insurance company claims examiner determine how much you should get paid?

Payment Policies

He clears the case and will process the payment on the claim. But if an Insurance Company Claims Examiner decides that the claim isn’t covered he can immediately deny the claim.
