What is the name of your state? OK
My mother carries an insurance where you get reimbursed for time spent in the hospital (she uses this money to pay her co-pay on her medicare supplement). She just had her knee replaced in Sept and submitted a claim...last week she got a check in the mail for $3,000. Thinking this was for the claim she submitted she cashed the check, waited until it posted to her account and sent off several checks to make her co-payments from the surgery. She then gets a phone call from the insurance company saying they haven't even reviewed her claim yet, and they are stopping payment on her claim check because it was issued in error.
Well, she of course was upset and spoke again to the lady at the insurance company. She said she would stop the stop payment and send her a letter requesting the money back.
What can we do??? This is crazy my mother is disabled and on a fixed income...what recourse does the insurance company have against my mother???
