When it comes time to pay a claim, they try to keep a hold of the money as long as possible to keep the money in their investment.
Understanding the prolonged duration in obtaining a settlement from an insurance company involves delving into the strategies they employ, often characterized by the infamous trio: DENY, DELAY, and DEFEND. This deliberate approach is not merely a coincidence but a tactical maneuver aimed at ensuring financial gain for the insurance company.
The primary incentive behind this prolonged process is financial. Insurance companies, being profit-driven entities, capitalize on the adage that time is money. By delaying the settlement process, they extend the period during which they can retain and invest the funds earmarked for claim payouts. This intentional delay allows them to generate additional revenue through strategic investments.
It’s essential to recognize that insurance companies operate as financial entities that don’t solely rely on premium collections. Instead, they leverage these premiums by investing them in various avenues to bolster their financial portfolios. Consequently, when the time comes to honor a claim, the inclination to prolong the disbursement is driven by a desire to maintain control over the invested capital for as long as possible.
This financial strategy, though advantageous for the insurance company, can pose significant challenges for claimants seeking timely compensation.
