What Is the Korea Insurance Claim Dispute Calculator?

This calculator estimates the economic value of a Korean insurance claim dispute. It compares claim amount, approved amount, disputed amount, delay interest, consolation money, lawsuit cost, and dispute-resolution routes.

The Korean calculator covers life, health, auto, fire, and liability insurance disputes and models rejection reasons such as disclosure violation, exemption, causation, overcharge, preexisting condition, out-of-scope treatment, investigation delay, or other denial.

Important Note

Insurance policy wording, notice records, medical causation, investigation documents, and Financial Supervisory Service or court decisions can change the result. Use the output as a planning model.

Delay Interest and Compensation Logic

  • Dispute amount equals claimed amount minus approved amount.
  • Delay days are measured from the rejection or delay date to the reference date used by the calculator.
  • Delay interest is calculated by segment using policy-loan-rate style assumptions and surcharge rules in the Korean model.
  • Optional consolation money is added only when the user selects a low, medium, or high consolation level.

Resolution Methods

MethodTypical roleWhen it matters
Insurer objectionFirst internal review or supplemental document submissionUseful when denial rests on missing records
FSS complaintFinancial Supervisory Service complaint and pressure routeUseful for unreasonable delay or unclear denial
Financial dispute mediationFormal dispute mediation routeSmall disputes may have insurer acceptance constraints
Civil lawsuitCourt decision on policy coverage and damagesNeeded for high-value or hard causation disputes

Legal References Reflected

The Korean content references Commercial Act Article 658 for insurer payment duties and Insurance Business Supervision Regulation Article 9-16-3 for delay-interest style handling. The calculator keeps the legal and economic tracks separate so the user can see both the unpaid claim and added delay component.

Small disputes around KRW 20,000,000 or less may have special practical leverage in financial dispute mediation because insurer acceptance duties can apply depending on the procedure and case type.

FAQ

Is delay interest always payable?

No. It depends on policy terms, whether the claim was properly due, documents submitted, and the legal reason for nonpayment.

Should I start with the FSS before filing a lawsuit?

Often yes for cost control, but urgent limitation, evidence, or high-value disputes may require legal review before waiting for mediation.
