The complainant had taken medi claim policy covering the period 14.05.13 to 13.05.14 suddenly complainant wife was admitted in Shanti Mukund hospital on 14.12.13 and was discharged on 21.12.13 & spent Rs.61,920/- out of which OP paid only Rs.52,820/- paid to complainant and remaining balance Rs.9,100/- was unpaid. Thus, complaint was filed.

The reply of Op and correspondences annexed by complainant shows that the complainant overstayed by 2 days, and only after the concerned doctor certified the stay as necessary by him, the OP released the balance 9100 to the complainant. However, the communication of complainant shows that OP did this on 20.11.4 and took 8-9 months for this compelling the complainant to file this complaint.

Now that amount has been paid, we award a net compensation of Rs.3,000/- for harassment , interest for delay and litigation expenses.
