Consumer Commissions Order Insurers to Pay Claims and Compensation in Two Cases
Two consumer commissions directed insurance companies to compensate policyholders after claim denials. In Mohali, Care Health Insurance was ordered to pay Rs 74,000 for hospital and ambulance expenses plus compensation after wrongly rejecting a spinal injury claim citing a waiting period. In Chandigarh, Tata AIG General Insurance was instructed to pay Rs 36,603 for a stolen scooter claim along with Rs 15,000 compensation for mental agony, after delaying claim processing due to late intimation. Both rulings cited deficiency in service by insurers.
