superclaim is not United India; for your claim status, the official channels are the ones below, taken from uiic.co.in. We cannot see or change your claim on the insurer's systems.

United India's official channels

We list only channels we could read on United India's own website. We did not find an online claim status page, an app or a WhatsApp number stated for claims there, so they are left out.

United India's website names the company as United India Insurance Company Limited (uiic.co.in/web/tpa-ppn-network-hospitals/th..., checked 28 Sep 2026).

How to check it, step by step

  1. 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.
  2. Use an official channel. Use the claim query email [email protected], the helpline 1800 425 33333 or the TPA named on your policy documents, as listed above.
  3. 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.

What United India's own pages say

Claim procedure page (all health policies): Reimbursement: written intimation to the TPA (or the office if non-TPA) immediately, and within 24 hours of an emergency admission. Cashless: planned admissions intimated to the TPA in advance; emergency on admission. From uiic.co.in/web/claims/claim-forms, checked 28 Sep 2026
  • Telling the insurer about a stay. Family Medicare Policy wording: Emergency: within 24 hours of admission or before discharge, whichever is earlier. Planned: at least 48 hours before admission. From uiic.co.in/web/product/health/Family-Medica..., checked 28 Sep 2026
  • Sending reimbursement documents. Claim procedure page (all health policies): Original documents to the TPA or office within 7 days of discharge; post-hospitalisation documents within 7 days after that treatment ends. From uiic.co.in/web/claims/claim-forms, checked 28 Sep 2026
  • Sending reimbursement documents. Family Medicare Policy wording: Within 15 days of discharge; post-hospitalisation within 15 days after that treatment ends. From uiic.co.in/web/product/health/Family-Medica..., checked 28 Sep 2026

The claim procedure page says 7 days and the Family Medicare Policy wording says 15. Check your policy wording; if unsure, send within 7 days.

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

If the claim is stuck, cut or rejected

  1. Write to the insurer's grievance officer with your policy and claim numbers. The insurer must resolve it within 14 days.
  2. Register it on IRDAI's Bima Bharosa portal at bimabharosa.irdai.gov.in if you want it tracked. This step is optional.
  3. 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.
