Insurance: Unfair Insurance Claim Practices
Unum Provident Defrauded the Government, Jury Finds
By North Carolina Insurance lawyer Thomas Pleasant. Here's a different twist on insurance company misconduct: Unum Provident was just found to have threatened its policyholders into filing for government disability benefits. Unum, the largest disability insurance company in the United States, evidently threatened to cut benefits if certain disability insurance policyholders refused to seek these government disability benefits. The article can be read at http://www.examiner.com/p-248458~Jury_Finds_Insurance_Giant_Unum_Defrauded_the_U_S_.html. This is a twist on traditiona unfair insurance claims practices, or insurance bad faith, but it's unfair and bad nonetheless.
