Respected Sir,
Re.: Grievance against

For Part Payment of Mediclaim & non payment of Interest for delayed
Payment. Policy No 120700/34/08/12/000000/49 of year 2008-09
(2) Insurance Ombudsman (Respected Sri Amitabh)
for making mockery of justice in Hearing and non compliance to my
grievance letters

Sir, I beg your permission to represent my first grievance against The New India Assurance Co. Ltd, Laldarwaja, Ahmedabad - 380001 and second grievance against Insurance Ombudsman through you Office.

(A) Grievance against The New India Assurance Co. Ltd, Laldarwaja, Ahmedabad - 380001
I am a member of LIC MEDICLAIM GROUP INSURANCE POLICY With The New India Assurance Co. Ltd. Premium is deducted from my salary and paid to Insurance Co. through my
Employer.
On12/08/2008 I submitted Claim Forms for Rs. 74799/- with relevant documents but only.
on 23/10/2008 I received discharge voucher for Rs. 73919/- without assigning any reason for part reimbursement as against claim of Rs. 74799/-. I submitted the same voucher duly signed and completed on 23/10/2008 but I received cheque of Rs.73919/-.only on 31/10/2008 at 5.25 p.m. (after office hours)
Thus, I received only part reimbursement which is short by Rs.880/- than claim amount of Rs. 74799/- after inordinate delay of 81 days without penal interest @ 18% p.a.
More over on 10/03/2009 I had submitted my letter showing conditional acceptance of the AWARD for payment of late fee (Interest) issued by Insurance Ombudsman to following address. Neither received payment of interest nor any reply from them:
Chief Regional Manager,
New India Assurance Co. Ltd,
Ahmedabad Regional Office,
Popular House, 5th Floor, Ashram Road
Ahmedabad-380009

Kindly resolve my grievance as detailed above and mentioned in Page No (2)

(B) Grievance against Insurance Ombudsman (Respected Sri Amitabh)
As per Provisions of IRDA Guidelines I Approached Insurance Ombudsman on 29/12/2008

Respected Sri Amitabh, Insurance ombudsman also not responded so far to my letters dated 04/02/2009 and 09/03/2009 (Xerox Copies enclosed for ref.).

Re – Our Mediclaim Policy No – 512202/34/08/0000 1562 issuing office P-4, Dobson Lane (4th floor) Howrah-711 01, Branch- 512202 and my previous policy No- 512202/34/07/20/00001767


Dear Sir,

As per the referred grievance no. – GC/HO/HODT/29/0352/2008 you have enquired about RO/DO/BO and have assured that you shall revert back soon. Since then, after passing of 10 months I have not received any response from you. Regarding this issue I called up your Howrah zonal office. But your officer over there asked me to contact Mumbai office where I lodged my complaint and literally misbehaved and disconnected my call.

I am really sorry to say that I felt extremely insulted and I ‘m willing to know whether this is the manner that personnel from branch office behaves with any client/ customer.

I‘ll be obliged if you kindly say me the fact that when I’m receiving the enquiry report and also inform me whether I‘ll make the renewal on 25.07.09 (Policy No – 512202/34/08/[protected]

Reg: CLAIM IDS– 33680/33950.



Sir,

I am covered under the Hospital Benefit Policy of New India Assurance Co. Ltd. cited above. I have submitted my reimbursement claims to your office.

A period of more than Ten Months has passed but no amount has been reimbursed to me from my above Claim IDs. It has become very difficult for me to spend on further treatment. I have made many telephonic requests to TPA Safeway for reimbursement of the amount but of no avail.

I was admitted in Sir Ganga Ram Hospital on 25th May, 2010 where my kidney transplant was done. I was discharged on 7th June, 2010. At the time of discharge I was advised by Doctors that for about six months I should take complete rest and not to go out side thatswhy I could not contact them after little recovered I started contact them but no avail copy of discharge summary enclosed for your ready reference.

I am a poor person was working as a clerk in a private company. However, on my falling ill and since admission I am almost out of the job and living on the help of my sister and other relatives. I had taken loan for my treatment. The people from whom I had taken loan in distress are asking for repayment. I am now in very embarrassing situation and looking for your help only.

I am under the cover of Mediclaim policy of your company since 2002. Please pay me with 12% interest.




I shall always be thankful to you for your this kindness.

I have submitted my reimbursement claims to your office as under:

1. Letter dated 11.03.2010 Claim for Rs. 10, 630.00
2. Letter dated 20.03.2010 Claim for Rs. 32, 100.00
3. Letter dated 15.05.2010 Claim for Rs. 3, 040.00

I had submitted my claim for the hospital expenses for my son in May 2012. On persistent follow up with your Chennai office, I was informed that the claim has been processed and cheque has been despatched to my residential address on 24the November 2012. The computation sheet has been sent on my e-mail id. However, even after nearly a month, I have not received the said cheque. Why is the re so much delay in receiving the cheque. Besides, to get someone to talk to on telephone is so difficult, because theere is no prompt receiving of the call and the call just gets transeferred to one person or the other, or they ask me to contact the Bangalore office or the Mumbai office. There is no such problem from us when we make the payment. The payment is promptly paid and the insurance company does not have to go through so much ordeal to get the premium. Then why do we face so much trouble when it comes to getting our claim amount.
