California Casualty joined The NEA Foundation in celebrating the nation’s top educators and education support professionals at the 2021 Salute to Excellence in Education Gala

I don’t think there ever has been a time when this country has been more aware of what educators contribute…


SAN MATEO, Calif. (PRWEB)

The NEA Foundation’s 2021 Salute to Excellence in Education Gala took place virtually on the evening of Friday, February 12th. Although the venue was different, the event remained exceptional – filled with inspiration, appreciation and celebration. California Casualty, a longtime sponsor of the event, was proud to attend and pay tribute to the 46 educators chosen by their peers for one of public education’s highest honors – the California Casualty Award for Teaching Excellence.

The virtual gala went off without a hitch and was attended by over 1100 individuals. Attendees were able to snap a virtual photo through the unique online photo booth and share chats throughout the event while celebrating the honorees.

Through a pre-recorded greeting, California Casualty President and CEO, Joe Volponi, delivered an inspiring message to the deserving recipients and attendees. “On behalf of our California Casualty family, I am honored to be here with all of you tonight for this special event. This gala gives us the opportunity to honor some of the American Heroes that we at California Casualty are there to protect …and I have to say, have never been more heroic than throughout this past year.”

“This evening we celebrate the can-do spirit, the perseverance, the dedication and the tremendous accomplishments of some of our nation’s greatest heroes – public school educators and public schools,” said Sara A. Sneed, President and CEO, The NEA Foundation. “I don’t think there ever has been a time when this country has been more aware of what educators contribute: not just to children’s lives, but to the very heart of community life, to the functioning of our economy and to democracy.”

The Awards for Teaching Excellence program recognizes educators from around the country who shine in their schools, their communities, and their own learning. These educators advocate for each other, the profession, and students, and they embrace the diversity of their communities and the wider world.

Casey Keyser, a third-grade elementary school teacher at Butterfly Ridge Elementary School in Frederick, MD took home the top honor: the NEA Member Benefits $25,000 Award for Teaching Excellence.

California Casualty gave a $150 stipend to each Awardee to purchase items to enhance classrooms.

Insurance Business America Names ICW Group a 5-Star Carrier in 2021

Leave a comment


ICW Group selected as a 5-Star Carrier in workers’ compensation in 2021 by Insurance Business America.

“Being recognized as a 5-Star Carrier across multiple areas that agents and brokers find important when advising their clients is certainly an honor, and it’s a badge we’ll wear proudly,” said Paul Zamora, Senior Vice President, Work Comp Underwriting.


SAN DIEGO (PRWEB)

ICW Group Insurance Companies, a leading group of property and casualty carriers, was selected as a 5-Star Carrier for workers’ compensation by brokers according to research conducted by Insurance Business America.

Insurance Business America, a leading business publication for commercial brokers, asked brokers to name the best workers’ compensation insurance providers of 2021 and ICW Group came out on top across six categories, including Best Standard, Loss Control Services, Loss Sensitive Programs, Claims Processing, Customer Service and Competitive Premiums.

“We are thrilled to be named a 5-Star Carrier for workers’ compensation and it’s even more meaningful that the designation came from brokers,” said Paul Zamora, senior vice president, work comp underwriting. “Our strong partnership with agents and brokers across the country is invaluable to creating the best insurance experience possible for our workers’ compensation policyholders. Being recognized as a 5-Star Carrier across multiple areas that agents and brokers find important when advising their clients is certainly an honor, and it’s a badge we’ll wear proudly.”

Insurance Business America’s research revealed that “claims processing” is the most vital attribute for brokers when considering where to place a policy, and one of the categories ICW Group received recognition for its outstanding performance.

“ICW Group’s claims team prides itself on being there for our customers when they need us most. We focus on professionally managing every aspect of the claims process and do whatever it takes to make sure our customers’ injured workers receive the very best care throughout their recovery,” said Amanda Granger, senior vice president, work comp claims.

To select the best workers’ compensation carriers, Insurance Business America’s research team conducted one-on-one interviews with specialist brokers and surveyed thousands of its readers. Brokers were asked what features they thought were the most important in workers’ compensation policies and how the insurance providers they worked with rated on those attributes. Carriers were also measured on the strength of their relationships with brokers, ability to handle claims, underwriting expertise and the strength of the individual products and services they provide.

To learn more about ICW Group’s 5-Star Carrier designation, see Insurance Business America’s online publication. Expanded coverage about ICW Group’s product category awards in Best Standard, Loss Sensitive Programs and Loss Control Services is also available.

What Are The Main Advantages Of Comparing Car Insurance Quotes Online?

Leave a comment


News Image

“Online quotes are the ideal tools that can help drivers save time and money while looking for better car insurance deals”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that explains how drivers can save time and money if they use the best online car insurance quotes.

For more info and free quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/top-advantages-drivers-get-by-comparing-online-quotes/

Searching for a better auto insurance deal can be done faster with the help of online quotes. Car insurance is getting more and more expensive with each year that passes, so it’s important to try to save as much money as possible.

The most important benefits drivers get when comparing online quotes are the following:


  • Obtain quotes from anywhere at any time. Before the internet, drivers had to go from one insurance agency to another to obtain quotes. By doing so, drivers wasted precious time to obtain a small number of quotes. Nowadays, drivers can sit comfortably in their homes while browsing different websites to obtain quotes. They can do that whenever they want, as long as they have an internet connection.

  • Quotes are fast to obtain. Very few persons are still willing to spend their time going from one insurance agency to another. With the help of the internet, drivers can obtain online quotes in a really fast manner and they can save precious time.

  • Get better insurance premiums. In most cases, drivers manage to save between 5% to 10% after comparing several quotes. Also, online quotes can help drivers find better deals from local or regional insurers. These types of insurers are harder to find, but many of them offer better deals than national insurers.

  • Accurate data Online quotes can be very accurate, and sometimes the online estimates are not different from the final price of a policy. To obtain accurate quotes, drivers have to complete complex online questionnaires with accurate info about themselves, their vehicles, and their driving records.

  • Drivers can compare multiple insurers. Drivers can easily compare multiple online quotes from different insurance companies. Drivers are no longer limited to compare prices from a few insurers. Furthermore, online quotes can help drivers obtain insurance offers from lesser-known insurers.

Kin Insurance Eclipses $10 Billion In Total Insured Property Value

Leave a comment


News Image

“Kin’s growth is evidence of the exponential need for accessible and affordable home insurance.”


CHICAGO (PRWEB)

Kin Insurance, the insurance technology company transforming home insurance through intuitive tech and affordable pricing, today announced it has surpassed $10 billion in total insured property value. Its substantial growth is a testament to the increased demand for easy, affordable coverage for homeowners.

Kin saw a 400 percent increase in direct written premiums in Q4 2020 over the previous year. Additionally, the insurtech boasts a 92 percent renewal acceptance rate, a strong signifier of the company’s dedication to customer satisfaction.

Kin consistently outpaces traditional insurance companies on customer satisfaction. Kin’s Net Promoter Score, which indicates a customer’s willingness to recommend a company to a friend, is 85, more than double the industry average of 35.

“Kin’s growth is evidence of the exponential need for accessible and affordable home insurance,” Kin Co-Founder and CEO Sean Harper said. “Every new customer is an opportunity to prove that home insurance can actually be a delightful, easy experience. We’re eager to share that experience with homeowners everywhere.”

In August 2020, Kin raised $35 million to fuel its expansion into other states. In September of last year, it became the first insurtech company to serve homeowners in both Florida and California, two states that make up 20 percent of the US home insurance market. Kin will launch its homeowners product in Louisiana later this quarter.

By using thousands of data points to accurately assess and price risk and by selling directly to consumers, Kin is able to trim inefficiencies that typically inflate the price of homeowner insurance. As a result, homeowners have access to reliable, affordable coverage.

It’s one of the many reasons Kin has a national reputation as a top-rated insurance company.

About Kin:

Kin is an insurance technology company that’s changing home insurance from what it is to what it should be. By leveraging thousands of property data points, Kin customizes coverage and prices through a super simple user experience.

Essential Hospitals Celebrate 40 Years as Champions of Safety Net

Leave a comment


This association has succeeded not only as an advocate but also as a force for better, more equitable care and positive change across the broader health care system.


WASHINGTON (PRWEB)

America’s Essential Hospitals this year marks four decades of service as the nation’s foremost champion for hospitals with a mission to care for underrepresented people and create access to care in underserved communities.

The association, based in Washington, D.C., today kicked off a celebration of its founding in 1981 as the National Association of Public Hospitals. It will mark the anniversary online with storytelling by people prominent in the association’s history, an interactive timeline, a video tribute, and other activities throughout the year.

The association, now more than 300 members strong, had modest beginnings as five public hospitals that organized to create a unique voice for hospitals that provide safety-net care. At the behest of the association’s catalyst, Washington lawyer Larry Gage, CEOs from the hospitals met with former Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) in summer 1980 to share thoughts on how Congress could better support essential hospitals and their patients. Soon after, the CEOs agreed to form an association, which they did in early 1981, with Gage as its president.

The founding members were Boston City Hospital (now, Boston Medical Center); College of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (now, University Hospital, Newark); Denver General Hospital (now, Denver Health); District of Columbia (D.C.) General Hospital; and Harris County Hospital District (now, Harris Health, Houston). Former D.C. General CEO Bob Johnson later said the $5,000 in initial dues each founding member paid “turned out to be one of the best investments any of us ever made.”

“For more than a generation, our association has played a pivotal role in policymaking to improve care and equity for marginalized people,” says Susan Ehrlich, MD, MPP, the association’s board chair and CEO of Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center. “It is a proud heritage, but an unfinished story. We still have work to do to achieve greater health equity and overcome systemic barriers to care that plague communities of color.”

Among the association’s most significant accomplishments was its first: convincing lawmakers to add language to the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981 to establish special funding for hospitals that “serve a disproportionate number of low income patients with special needs.” This laid the foundation for Medicaid and Medicare disproportionate share hospital (DSH) payments, a vital source of safety-net support. The association also was instrumental in establishing drug discounts for safety-net providers under the 340B Drug Pricing Program.

Along the way, America’s Essential Hospitals built an association infrastructure that today includes a robust research and education component, Essential Hospitals Institute; leadership development programs for rising hospital executives; and various projects and programs to encourage hospitals to share effective strategies and best practices.

“Our hospitals have led the way for all of health care with innovation that comes from the need to do more with less,” says America’s Essential Hospitals President and CEO Bruce Siegel, MD, MPH. “This association has succeeded not only as an advocate but also as a force for better, more equitable care and positive change across the broader health care system.”

The National Association of Public Hospitals (later, the National Association of Public Hospitals and Health Systems) transitioned to America’s Essential Hospitals in 2013 to reflect an evolving membership that includes both public and private nonprofit hospitals, all with a safety-net mission. In addition to that mission, essential hospitals have an extensive teaching role, provide trauma care and other complex services, promote public health and health equity, and coordinate care across providers and community partners.

Impacts of COVID-19 Changing Priorities, Accelerating Technology Investments

Leave a comment


“Our Annual Survey is one of the key components that helps IIS serves as a neutral platform for all stakeholders and allows us to leverage the collective input of our diverse and expansive network of insurance executives representing IIS, PIC, and ITL,” says IS President Josh Landau.


NEW YORK (PRWEB)

According to a new global survey from the International Insurance Society (IIS), in collaboration with the Pacific Insurance Conference (PIC) and Insurance Thought Leadership (ITL), (all affiliates of The Institutes), insurance executives ranked innovation as their highest-priority area of concern. In 2019, cyber security was ranked highest. The implications of COVID-19 were ranked the second-highest area of concern overall, but respondents in the Asia Pacific region ranked them significantly higher than those in other regions did.

While the health and safety of employees was ranked highest among COVID-19 implications, the second-greatest concern was an unpredictable economy. Most respondents expected negative business impacts from COVID-19, with 71 percent anticipating decreased profit and 61 percent expecting decreased sales.

Although 95 percent of executives indicated that innovation was important or very important to their business’s success, just 35 percent had an active innovation plan in place. However, 65 percent of respondents said they were definitely making technology investments in response to the impacts of COVID-19.

Respondents were asked to rank the following concerns from highest priority to lowest:


  • Innovation

  • Implications of COVID-19

  • Emerging threats

  • Resiliency and sustainability

  • Cyber security

  • Regulation

  • Closing the protection gap

The Global Concerns Survey provides the IIS with an annual roadmap to deliver content, thought leadership, and education to the global insurance and risk management community. According to IIS President Josh Landau, “The IIS will continue to deliver relevant and timely initiatives to support the accelerating change of pace in the industry. The IIS provides a neutral platform for all stakeholders to collaborate and contribute to move the industry forward in a positive way. The Annual Survey is one of the key components that helps us provide this value, leveraging the collective input of our diverse and expansive network of insurance executives representing IIS, PIC, and ITL.”

In support of this, the IIS launched Executive Insights, a partnership with six of the world’s leading experts in insurance and risk management to deliver targeted, relevant, and timely thought leadership on the most important topics to today’s insurance executives. Learn more about the experts and view their research on the IIS website.
