If one insurance doesn't cover the full amount, you can get the balance from a second.

I had a $1500+ claim last year with Alianz when I bought travel insurance for a particular trip. Their max payout was less than half of the claim amount. So I also submitted it to my credit card since it was covered by their benefits. They paid the balance on the claim for me (telling them that I had already received $XX for Alianz on the claim..)
