How the Idea of Insurance Was Created and How It Revolved To Become an Ordinary Matter

The life has both its positive and negative meanings. Sometimes you have all you want but other times you need to struggle very hard to make both ends meet. The life also poses some extraordinary challenges to cope up with especially when there are some unforeseen situations. We listen on TV, read in newspaper about hundreds of small and large accidents that happen around the world each day. These accidents are a result of reckless driving in some cases while in other occasions it is just a result of natural calamities over which humans have little or no control. Some decades back, humans thought of devising ways to counter the results and consequences that are posed by accidents, be it man made or divine. In case of manmade accidents, they created rules and obligations to follow for the humans. Stringent driving rules, stopping at signals, provision of driving licenses etc are all the results of deliberations that humans made just to stop or mitigate the high rising accidents. But it had no control over floods, rain and divine catastrophes so it to devise some ways to controls them too. Then an idea was invented and given a name of insurance. Under insurance cover, a person is given back the lost thing in case of any unfortunate event taking place. The person who obtains insurance cover pays little sum to the other party who is usually a company.

Injury Compensation Claims are those claims that arise due to an injury caused by some unforeseen event taking place. Due to high cases of claims, there came a risk of payment of insurance to people who actually did not suffer any accident but made a false claim instead. To counter this problem, insurance companies started having their own claim departments who scrutinize the claim by going in every details of the event. Initially, it had some positive results when some fake cases were captured but later on claims were not awarded to even those cases where the event was actually taken place. To help the people falling victim to such events, some people started giving services to compensate the injury sufferers. They take responsibility of obtaining the claim amount from the insurance company to make payment later on. They work as your lawyer to obtain the insurance payment from the insurance company. If they are able to obtain the payment then the person getting the payment would be liable to pay a pre agreed amount as commission.

When insurance business was developed, majority of people were against the idea. The anti insurance people were surprised that such idea won’t live to expectations. They felt that anybody can make a false claim based upon the fact that an accidental event has occurred. But the proponents of insurance took the risk and gave the idea. Now we see that not a single company, vehicle or home is uncovered under insurance. Even people are covered under insurance of getting an amount after they die. The recent form of insurance is to give medical cover when a person falls ill.
