additional information required

Additional information required is a claim status in which an insurance claim cannot yet be assessed or decided because the insurer needs further relevant information or documents.

In plain English

This status means the insurer is still missing some relevant details or documents. Until that information is provided, the claim is not ready for assessment or a decision.

In context

Here, it signals that the insurer has asked for more relevant details or records before the claim can be assessed or decided.

Situation
Submitting claims, evidence, estimates, and following claim status

Meaning limits

By itself, this status does not say whether the claim will later be approved or denied.

Examples

“The claim was marked additional information required, not denied, because the insurer was still waiting for the missing receipts.”

Core meaning

“After the medical report was left out, the insurer changed the file to additional information required and asked for a copy.”
