It was truly a case of “it’s not what but who you know” for Erin and Ian when they were faced with a devastating diagnosis and a claims stalemate with their health insurer.
While Erin was extremely ill, the couple literally had to go into bat with their insurer to get the full cost of Erin’s recommended treatment covered, which included preventative surgery. Not only did the insurer decline to cover the preventative surgery, their existing broker seemed “unwilling or unable” to help them.
That’s when a friend of the couple referred them to Julie Orr at Abbott Life and Health. Julie reviewed the policy wording, the email exchanges, and contacted the health insurer to better understand the situation.
She then advised the couple on a recommended approach to take with their insurer, including who to talk to and how best to appeal to them.
It worked. Just days before Erin’s scheduled surgery, their insurer agreed to cover the preventative surgery too.
The great news is that Erin and her family are all doing well, and we have welcomed Erin and Ian to the Abbott client family.
“Abbott Group knew who to talk to and exactly what to say. I would not hesitate to recommend them for anyone looking for the best insurance advice.”
