[LTC-Sales_Discussions] LTC claims time

Thu, 30 Oct 2003 07:37:24 -0700

Eric, 
I can vouch for GE from personal experience.&nbsp; My mother had LTCi with GE.&nbsp; I filed her claim in 1998 without a problem and she continued to receive benefits until a couple of weeks ago when she passed away.&nbsp; Believe me, I thanked God&nbsp;everyday that my Mom&nbsp;was able to qualify for and purchased the coverage.&nbsp; 
I had not one problem with GE's&nbsp;claims paying.&nbsp; They did miscalculate on 2 or 3 of her monthly checks, but as soon as I brought the discrepancies to their attention, they sent supplement checks immediately.

<DIV>Where does one find out which companies have a history of paying claims &amp; which don't?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Also, I've repeatedly&nbsp;heard rumor &amp; I stress rumor that GE LTC has had&nbsp;a problem paying claims.&nbsp; I find that hard to swallow and would love input on it &amp; where this is coming from.&nbsp; Opinions are great, but I'm looking&nbsp;for documented facts.</DIV>
Make it SIMPLE.&nbsp; Make it CLEAR.&nbsp; Make it HAPPEN.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; -V.
