Published 1 week, 4 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 claimant is required to submit written proof of loss to the insurer within 90 days of the loss.
- Insurers must pay claims for periodic payments, such as disability income, immediately upon receiving proof of loss.
- For all other types of claims, like medical reimbursements, the insurer must pay promptly after receiving proof.
- A claim is not automatically denied for late submission if proof is provided as soon as reasonably possible, but no later than one year.
- A common exam trap is confusing the 90-day Proof of Loss provision with the 20-day Notice of Claim provision.
