Many lenders provide loan insurance as an added protection for both the borrower and themselves, with mortgage insurance being a popular choice. Depending on the policy’s terms, this insurance may cover your payments, interest, or pay your loan balance in the event of disability or death. Like many borrowers, you might choose this insurance for its convenience and low cost. As you make your loan payments over time, you are also paying insurance premiums, with the belief that if you become disabled, this insurance will cover your loan obligations, providing your family with vital financial relief.
Common reasons why mortgage lender insurance disability claims are denied
The application process is simple. Getting your claim paid may be difficult.
Obtaining loan insurance is a straightforward process, requiring completion of a simple form that includes a condensed medical questionnaire. Applicants generally provide information to the best of their knowledge without extensive deliberation.
During the claims process, however, insurers will scrutinize the details of your answers to the medical questions. This thorough examination can lead to challenges in receiving payouts, as insurers will rely on errors or omissions to deny claims.
Know your rights and act promptly
It is crucial not to delay when it comes to understanding and asserting your rights. Keep in mind that there is a limited timeframe to appeal or contest an insurance claim denial. Act swiftly to protect your interests.
