Can you make a homeowners insurance claim and self contract?
This will be up to the adjuster. Sometimes they will allow you to do this if you are qualified to do so and you agree to the estimate that the adjuster comes up with.
If an insurance adjuster came to your home and gave you a quote on what is covered does the insurance company have to honor that?
the value of your claim is always based upon your contract (policy) with the insurance company. but if the adjuster was an actual employee of the carrier (vs. a hired adjuster), and didn't qualify the information (i.e. i have to check with the home office) then you have a good argument to make that you are owed what was told to you. Insurance companies play hardball and do not always honor what the adjusters says. Sometimes the adjuster will misrepresent what he or she said when ask my their company.
Why is copay on health insurance not a crime since you already pay monthly payments to the insurance company?
Because it is provided for in the contract of insurance (policy) in which you entered. If the information that there was a co-pay (or a deductible) is NOT in your insurance contract, or was not made clear to you at the time you entered into the contract, then that could very well constitute a crime. If you believe you were defrauded by a company then you should cancel your health insurance policy and contact your State's Insurance Commissioner at once.
Should you trust the insurance adjuster?
An insurance adjuster is the individual who is charged with investigating losses claimed under an insurance policy. What most people fail to realize, is that the adjuster is: 1. Bound by the terms of the policy (which is a binding contract); and 2. Required by law to adhere to the provisions of the contract. Television ads by attorneys often warn the public not to talk to an adjuster. What these ads don't reveal is that if you are the insured under the contract, you have a duty to cooperate with the insurance company in an attempt to investigate and settle the claim. That means you have an obligation to give a statement, submit to a physical examination (if injuries are claimed), turn over any relevant documents or evidence and reveal any witnesses or other relevant information. Failure to do so may invalidate a claim and release the company from its obligation to pay damages. You always have the right to employ an attorney to represent your interests, but before you give away 25%, 33% or more of your recovery, see what the adjuster is going to do. Most adjusters try to do a good job.
