National Flood Insurance Program

NFIP flood insurance plans are the primary flood insurance plans sold across the country. The policies are sold by private insurance companies. The NFIP call center can help you find an agent who sells flood insurance. The NFIP call center can also help you after a disaster. Its representatives can answer questions about your insurance policy and the claims process, such as “What is covered under my policy?” and “What documents are needed to file a claim?” NFIP representatives can explain your options if you disagree with the amount the insurance company says it will pay you for damage to your property. See the NFIP website's step-by-step instructions on how to file a flood claim.
