Claims that have been reported to an insurer and that are being investigated. |
| Incurred but not reported |
Claims that were incurred during an accounting period but have not been reported to the insurer as of the annual statement date. |

The insurer estimates the amount of its liability for denied claims that have been resisted (contested) and provides a contingency reserve in case a court determines that the insurer is liable for the claim payment. |
