5500 - Schedule A - Part III 9b - claims paid &/or charged

[TPApril]

Insurance providers report claims paid on their Schedule A letters, but not a separate item for Claims charged. I'm wondering if this amount should be entered on Sched., AIIIb under both (1) Claims paid and (4) Claims charged. Reason I wonder is that the SAR pulls the 'claims paid' number from the Claims charged entry.

I'm curious how other providers treat the 'claims charged' line item. Doesn't seem to be guidance.
