How long does a Georgia insurer have to acknowledge a professional liability claim?

Quick answer: Under the Georgia Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act (O.C.G.A. Sections 33-6-30 to 33-6-37) and Ga. Comp. R. and Regs. 120-2-52, a carrier must acknowledge your claim within 15 calendar days. It must affirm or deny coverage within 15 days of a completed proof of loss, or within 30 days of the claim report when proof of loss is not required.
