Golden Rule Insurance Company’s dental insurance policy in Kentucky (KY) states that if all or part of a payment was made in error, the refund equals the amount paid in excess of what should have been paid under the policy [1]. If the refund is due from the policyholder and is not promptly refunded, the insurer may recover the overpayment by reallocating the overpaid amount to pay, in whole or in part, future benefits payable under the policy [1]. The insurer may also recover overpayments from other persons or organizations by reallocating the overpaid amount to future benefits payable in connection with services provided to other covered persons or under other plans, if the insurer’s recovery rights are assigned [1]. This does not appear in these excerpts — check the full policy for cancellation and refund rights related to policyholder-initiated cancellation.
