Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Appeal of Insurance is an excellent collection that reflects a growing interest in insurance research within the social sciences. Clearly written and accessible to a variety of audiences, this is a volume of world-class scholarship.'-Luis Lobo-Guerrero, School of Politics, International Relations, and Philosophy, Keele University In the marketing of its products, the insurance industry has always depended on a considerable dose of moral exhortation and enlightened appeal. The Appeal of Insurance traces the ways in which insurance over the past three centuries, perhaps more than any other business, has grown in concert with a clientele largely of its own making. Faced with a public that has preferred to avoid confronting the certainty of fatality or the probabilities of catastrophe, insurance promoters have had to create a demand for their products, first, by persuading the public to see the world as ruled less by divine judgments and more by statistical patterns, and second, by proclaiming a moral imperative of hedging against death and disaster by the prudential recourse to insurance. The essays presented here examine the history of insurance as a process of negotiation between the embedded social, legal, and cultural norms out of which the practice of insurance grew, and the new arrangements and sensibilities that insurance itself helped bring into being. Today, insurance is a global economic colossus and a fixture in the developed countries of the world. But neither the financial clout of the insurance industry nor its ubiquity conveys the full measure of its social and political influence. The insurance industry has in fact become a primary agent of discipline and control over public and private behaviours by imposing upon them the criterion of insurability. By tracing the boundaries of acceptable (and compensated) from unacceptable (and uncompensated) risk, insurers directly or indirectly govern people, products, and markets, and by this process become one of the most powerful and pervasive agents of social and economic control.

She has won appeals against all major insurance carriers, recovering millions of dollars in wrongfully denied benefits for claimants.

She discusses the three important foundations of any effective appeal: argument, evidence and context for your claim. The book also covers: Why you're not just appealing to the insurance company, you're also building the only record about your claim that you can use for a lawsuit if your appeal is denied; Why you should always ask your Plan Sponsor, and not just the insurance company, for a copy of your insurance policy and all the documents that govern your claim; When to request your insurance company claim file - and when to skip it - and what to look for; How to determine the real value of your claim and factor in any other related benefits many people don't think to consider until it's too late; How to work with your doctors, even when they're reluctant to engage with the insurance company, to get the support you need for a successful appeal, and much more. With any insurance company appeal, time is of the essence. If you miss the appeal deadline, you most likely will not get another chance to revive your claim. The insurance company is counting on you being one of the claimants who don't know where to begin, so they never submit an appeal. Don't let them get away with it! Get your copy of Recover Your Benefits: Keys to Successfully Navigating the Disability or Life Insurance Appeal Process to learn how to take the necessary steps to fight the insurance company's wrongful denial and get your benefits back.

Book excerpt: An expose of insurance injustice and a plan for consumers and lawmakers to fight it Over the last two decades, insurance has become less of a safety net and more of a spider's web: sticky and complicated, designed to ensnare as much as to aid. Insurance companies now often try to delay payment of justified claims, deny payment altogether, and defend these actions by forcing claimants to enter litigation. Jay M. Feinman, a legal scholar and insurance expert, explains how these trends developed, how the government ought to fix the system, and what the rest of us can do to protect ourselves. He shows that the denial of valid claims is not occasional or accidental or the fault of a few bad employees. It's the result of an increasing and systematic focus on maximizing profits by major companies such as Allstate and State Farm. Citing dozens of stories of victims who were unfairly denied payment, Feinman explains how people can be more cautious when shopping for policies and what to do when pursuing a disputed claim. He also lays out a plan for the legal reforms needed to prevent future abuses. This exposé will help drive the discussion of this increasingly hot- button issue.
