What is an "Assignment of Benefit?"
An assignment of benefits requires the insurance company to pay insurance benefits to your chosen contractor/vendor directly for the work you have approved as a result of your insurance claim. Later, if there is a dispute or disagreement over payment for your claim, that becomes your contractor/vendor's problem – not yours.
