TOPEKA – Insurance Commissioner Vicki Schmidt announced on Wednesday the Kansas Insurance Department recovered $4.12 million in insurance funds for Kansans in the first eight months of 2022. 

“When Kansans call the Insurance Department, we work diligently to help make sure they receive the benefits they are entitled to under their insurance policy,” said Commissioner Schmidt.

If a dispute arises between a policyholder and an insurance company, regardless of the type of insurance, the Kansas Insurance Department investigates the complaint with the consumer and the company and works to ensure the insurance policy is followed and benefits are paid accordingly. 

“The insurance claims process can be complicated for consumers and if you are having an issue, I want to hear from you,” said Schmidt.
