Insurance Claim Skill
Claims get paid faster when they're complete and well-documented: the right policy and incident details, an itemised loss, and the evidence attached. This skill writes that letter — or, for a denial, an appeal that addresses the insurer's stated reason directly — so the adjuster has everything they need to say yes.
Note: this is a drafting aid, not legal, financial, or insurance advice, and it does not guarantee a payout. Coverage, deadlines, and procedures depend on your policy and jurisdiction — read your policy, meet the insurer's deadlines, and consult a qualified advisor for complex or high-value claims. Never misrepresent facts; insurance fraud is a crime.
Working from a brief
Given "file a claim for water damage from a burst pipe", write the full claim anyway — structure it and bracket the specifics (policy number, dates, amounts, itemised losses) to fill in, and list the evidence to attach. Never withhold for missing detail; never inflate or invent losses.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided (else bracket to fill in):
- Policy details — insurer, policy/claim number, and policyholder.
- The incident — what happened, when and where, and how it was discovered/reported.
- The loss — what was damaged/lost, itemised, with values/estimates.
- Evidence — photos, receipts, repair estimates, police/incident reports, prior correspondence.
- The claim — the amount claimed and the outcome you want; or, for an appeal, the denial reason given.
Output Format
Insurance Claim Letter
- Header — your details, date, insurer, and a Re: line with the policy/claim number.
- 1. The incident — what happened, when, where, and when it was reported (factual, dated).
- 2. The loss — an itemised list of what was damaged/lost with values/estimates.
- 3. Amount claimed — the total, and how it's calculated.
- — the documents enclosed/available (listed and referenced).
