A hospital clinic has taken its insurer to Texas federal court, accusing the company of underpaying its hurricane damage claim following what the clinic describes as a “substandard, cursory inspection.” The clinic alleges that the insurer ignored “obvious” damages during the inspection process, resulting in a significantly reduced payout.
The clinic’s lawsuit contends that the insurer’s assessment was inadequate and failed to properly account for the full extent of the damages sustained during the hurricane. By allegedly overlooking clear evidence of damage, the insurer is accused of not providing fair compensation for the losses incurred.
The case highlights the ongoing issues that many property owners face when dealing with insurance claims related to natural disasters. The clinic’s action in federal court represents a significant step in seeking what it believes is appropriate compensation for the damages it sustained.
