Tips for writing the health insurance cancellation letter:

  • Make a rough draft of the letter:

When you have decided to cancel the policy, start making a rough draft of the letter. This will help you outline the content you want to add to your letter. You can draft the letter in your handwriting or type it on your personal computer. Make a copy of the letter and send that copy to the letter.

  • Check the policy:

Every insurance company has a different policy about the cancellation of the policy. You should be well aware of the policy before you think of canceling yours. Some companies don’t allow people to cancel their policy in the mid. However, some companies have a proper procedure to perform the cancellation of the policy. Therefore, when you feel that you have to cancel it, you should contact the company and request to cancel the policy. In response to your letter, the company will tell you the procedure to follow.

  • Mention the date of cancellation:

If you want your health insurance policy to be canceled from a specific date, mention that date in the letter so that the company doesn’t ask you to pay the premium of the time that has passed after that date.

  • Give reason for the cancellation

Although it is not mandatory to give a reason for the cancellation, you can write it to prove that you have a genuine reason to do that. Many companies allow the cancellation of the policy only in certain situations. If you meet the criteria to cancel the policy, you must provide the reason with the supporting documentation.
