Description

An insurance claim is a peculiar ritual in which one competes for compensation by performing on the stage of accidents and calamities. Claimants don the guise of victims, navigating a labyrinth of paperwork to plead their case before the adjudicators known as insurance companies. The time spent awaiting payment is a test of patience and endurance, with denials serving as bonus spectacles of distrust. Ultimately, the reward may be satisfaction or simply the prelude to another grievance—no one can predict.
