Mediclaim rejected, hr fault

I joined the x company on 12th April 2016. My family was covered under corporate mediclaim provided by medi assist india. on 8th May 2016 my son was hospitlised for 9 days. I paid all the bills and submitted all the documents for mediclaim.

My claim was rejected as company did not applied for my medical insurence on joining.

Following message received from insurer--

"Please find the below claim is Out Of Scope,

Beneficiary cover from : 20 june 16, Date of Admission: 08 may 2016."

My contract and company HR manual clearly states that my family is covered under mediclaim from date of joining.

Both my employer and insurance company not ready to entertain any request.

Please advise how can i proceed further to claim the amount.

Dear Rahul,

Since you are currently associated with the employer, thus right way would be that you should take up the matter through your seniors and get the HR personal answerable, you would be able to drive out compensation from your employer. By providing him Legal Notice, you may suffer resistence in job. You have to find out the correct reason for such error.

Don't remain entangled with HR.

Escalate to good offices of appointing authority,MD under proper acknowledgment.

Has the company included premia in CTC?

Are you entitled to be covered by ESIC?

You seem to have a good case.

Mr.Rahul

Confrontation with the management at the very begining of career is not advisable for your future growth with them. So think twice on legal remedies. Take up the case with the Grievance mechanism if existing or approach through union if any and ensure amicable resolution.

If it is error by HR then it will fall back on HR.

Since HR executes inner wills/wishes of employer so employer may also give some room to HR.

Recourse that you want is not in interest of HR hence they are all trying to subdue you.

Procceed methodically: Write, of course, under proper acknowledgment, to HR, then escalate to god offices.

Of course you can proceed thru; Unions, Greivance redressal Commitee,Works Commitee, your own counsel specializing in Labor/service matters.
