Reimbursement Claims:
On the other hand, reimbursement claims simply reimburse the incurred expenses due to hospitalization. In this claim you will not require a pre-authorization form as the expenses will be initially settled by you and the reimbursement of it will be provided if the claim request passes through by the insuring company. This process will occur after the treatment has been completed, unlike the before method.
