insurance policy or the services provided by an insurer or intermediary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common areas of complaints include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol

The insurer is expected to address the complaint within the prescribed timeframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The grievance process is important because a claim decision or service issue can sometimes involve questions about policy coverage, exclusions, documentation, interpretation of policy conditions, or the way the insurer has handled the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Bima_Bharosa\"><\/span>What Is Bima Bharosa?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bima Bharosa is the grievance management platform established by the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI).

A complaint token number is generated, allowing the policyholder to track the status of the grievance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bima Bharosa can therefore be relevant when a policyholder has already raised an issue with the insurer and remains dissatisfied with the response or has not received a resolution within the applicable timeframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Insurance_Issues_That_Can_Become_Complaints\"><\/span>Types of Insurance Issues That Can Become Complaints<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Insurance complaints are not limited to claim rejection.
