Best Answer

If what you are asking is who/what pays the losses of claims submitted to an insurer, the answer is, if it is a covered claim, the insurer.

The nature of insurance is that in return for a premium (a dollar amount paid periodically), the insurer assumes the risk of loss of certain categories of losses outlined in the policy. There are dollar limits to the amount that the insurer will pay for various categories of losses, but within those limits, and assuming that it is a covered loss, the insurer pays. There may also be deductibles, and for some forms of insurance, copayments (which the insured pays), but overall, the insurer assumes the risk of loss and pays covered claims.
