Lawyers outline steps to force travel insurers to answer claims
Original: Your travel insurer is ghosting your $10K emergency surgery claim — lawyers say these 3 steps can force a response
Travel insurers are reportedly ignoring claims for major expenses like emergency surgery, sometimes worth $10,000 or more, leaving travellers waiting months without a response. Legal experts recommend three steps to force an answer: putting the demand in writing with a firm deadline, escalating to the insurer's complaints or ombudsman process, and threatening or filing formal legal action. Consumer advocates say documented paper trails significantly improve outcomes.
Why now: Frustrated travellers are seeking practical advice as insurers delay or ignore large medical claims abroad.
