Sample Letter to Insurance Carrier Regarding First Party Bad Faith
Dear Adjuster [name]:
The purpose of this letter is to issue a final request for medical payments coverage before filing suit with respect to the above captioned matter.
On [date] our client, your insured, was struck from the rear with significant force by another party. A claim has since been filed against such party and your company has already filed a lien pursuant to your subrogation rights. Therefore, any payments made with respect to our client’s medical payments coverage are likely to be reimbursed to your carrier in due course.

. Mid State Hospital in the amount of $227 for x-rays on September 23, 1999 and emergency treatment on 8/16/99.
. Dr. Sam Smith, Neurosurgeon, in the amount of $420 for a consultation of November 2, 1999.
. Mid State Imaging for an MRI in the amount of $890 conducted on November 6, 1999.]
Despite many requests that these bills be honored, you have refused and continue to refuse to honor these bills. Our client has received collection letters from at least two of these facilities and we anticipate that his credit rating will be affected by your failure to pay bills.
Please be reminded that [relevant state code section] provides for...
