Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams.
In this episode you will learn:
- The insured must provide a written notice of claim to the insurer within 20 days of a loss, or as soon as reasonably possible.
- The 20-day notice period can be extended if circumstances, such as incapacitation, make it not reasonably possible for the insured to comply.
- After receiving a notice of claim, the insurer has a 15-day deadline to furnish the claimant with the necessary claim forms.
- If the insurer fails to provide claim forms within 15 days, the claimant can satisfy the requirement by submitting a written description of the loss.
- A common exam trap is confusing the 20-day Notice of Claim provision with the 90-day Proof of Loss provision.
