How do I check my Niva Bupa claim status?

Use the claim status page on rules.nivabupa.com, the Niva Bupa Health app or the helpline 1860-500-8888 (charged). These are Niva Bupa's own channels, taken from its website.

What do I need to check my Niva Bupa claim status?

Niva Bupa's claim status page asks for the claim ID sent by SMS. Keep your claim or intimation number and your policy number ready as well.

How long can Niva Bupa take to settle my claim?

IRDAI's limits apply to every insurer. A cashless request must be decided within one hour and final discharge authorised within three hours. A reimbursement claim must be settled within 15 days of submission, or the insurer pays interest at bank rate plus 2%.

What does query raised mean on my claim?

The insurer or TPA wants more information or a document before it decides. Send exactly what the query asks for, in writing, and keep proof of the date. IRDAI's 2024 master circular says no claim shall be rejected or closed for want of documents or for delayed intimation.

How to check it, step by step

Keep your numbers ready. Find your claim or intimation number and your policy number. The claim number comes when the claim is logged; the policy number is on your schedule and health card.
Open the official claim status page. Go to Niva Bupa's own claim status page at rules.nivabupa.com/customer-service/?page=claim_status. Check the address before you type anything.
Enter what it asks for. The page asks for the claim ID sent by SMS.
Read the status and act on it. Match the status to the table below. If there is a query, answer it in writing and keep proof of the date.

What you need to hand

Claim or intimation number. Given when the claim is logged, and printed on authorisation and query letters.
Policy number. On your policy schedule and your health card or e-card.
The patient's details as on the policy. Name and date of birth, spelled the same way.

Niva Bupa's claim status page asks for the claim ID sent by SMS (from transactions.nivabupa.com/claims/pages/claimdocupload.aspx, checked 28 Sep 2026).

The words on your tracker may differ; the stage is the same.
Status	What it means	What to do
Intimated	The insurer or its TPA has logged the claim and given it a number.	Note the claim or intimation number. Every follow-up needs it.
Under process	The claim is being read: the hospital's cashless request, or your reimbursement file.	For cashless, ask the hospital desk what time it sent the request. The clock runs from receipt.
Query raised	The insurer or TPA wants more information or a document before it decides.	Read the query letter, send exactly what it asks for in writing, and keep proof of the date you sent it.
Approved or settled	Cashless: an amount is authorised. Reimbursement: the insurer has paid, or is paying, the amount shown.	Check the amount against your bill. Any cut must name the policy term behind it.
Rejected or partly settled	The insurer is paying nothing, or less than you claimed.	Ask for the specific policy clause relied on, then write to the insurer's grievance officer.

These are from Niva Bupa's website. Your policy wording sets your deadline; if the two differ, follow the shorter one.

If the claim is stuck, cut or rejected

Write to the insurer's grievance officer with your policy and claim numbers. The insurer must resolve it within 14 days.
Register it on IRDAI's Bima Bharosa portal at bimabharosa.irdai.gov.in if you want it tracked. This step is optional.
Go to the Insurance Ombudsman within one year if the insurer rejects your complaint, does not reply within a month, or replies in a way you do not accept.

The full steps are in our guide to what to do when a claim is rejected or cut.

How superclaim helps

Send us the status, the query letter or the settlement letter on WhatsApp. A person reads it, explains it in plain words, and tells you what the insurer is asking for and what to send back. We do not replace the insurer's channels, and we never ask for an OTP, card or bank details.
