PROJECTS
With immediate initiative and support of the Georgian Insurance Association, significant projects have been implemented to support development of the insurance market:
The Health Insurance Mediation Service of the Georgian Insurance Association:
- The main objective behind establishing the Health Insurance Mediation Service of the Georgian Insurance Association was to assist the parties in the insurance relations to resolve disputes outside of the court system.
- A considerable part of the population, including the poor, teachers, staff of the law enforcement structures and other public officials, have become beneficiaries of insurance products implemented by programs of the Georgian government in 2007-2008. At the same time, replacement of the state-financed health programs with the private insurance scheme has naturally increased number of appeals and disputes concerning insurance.
- The mediation service has organized meetings and public hearings. Moreover, the mediation service staff has organized telephone help-lines to educate and assist beneficiaries, providers and other target groups in casting light on the insurance-related issues and resolving conflict cases outside the courts.
