Rohtak Consumer Panel Orders Health Insurer to Pay Rs 99,265 to Policyholder
The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Rohtak ordered a private health insurer to pay Rs 99,265 to policyholder Amit Garg after finding the insurer's deductions from his Covid-19 treatment claim unjustified. Garg had incurred medical expenses of Rs 1,76,962 but was reimbursed only Rs 77,697. The insurer cited missing lab reports and treatment guidelines for deductions, but the commission found no evidence that Garg was asked to provide missing documents or given a chance to address deficiencies before deductions.
