If ever I lose a certain amount of Bitcoin (large or small), how can I track it down or claim it back? Who should I contact?

I don't think you understand what decentralized means... Undecided

You contact the CEO or Bitcoin Mark Karpeles.

Joking aside BTC requires the user to have a little computer knowledge about how to secure your coins. Until a relatively foolproof and cheap device is made to secure coins the due diligence is on the part of the coin owner.
