I hope you all were not badly affected by the storm. Below is information
regarding insurance claims from the Department of Insurance, Securities and
Banking.
As we get ready to go to the polls for Election Day, please keep in mind
that this is more than a Presidential election, so please fill out the
entire ballot. I am asking for your vote. NEW ANC 5B01 # 1 on the ballot.
We will have our Joint 5A09 & PSA 503 meeting on Wednesday, November 14,
2012 at Hospital for Sick Children, 18th & Bunker Hill Road, NE at 6:30PM
Thanksgiving draws near, those who are less fortunate will be in need, while
there are various opportunities to give, if we could take up a collection of
non perishable items or donations of gift cards to give to our local pantry
at Seabury that would be helpful (not mandatory). Please bring to meeting.

Insurance Department Issues Resident and Industry Information Regarding
Insurance Claims Following Storm Sandy
_____
Oct. 30, 2012 (Washington, D.C.) - In these days following the storm Sandy,
those who suffered damages will begin filing insurance claims. The
Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking is issuing guidance to both
residents and the insurance industry to assist with this step in storm
recovery.
"The days following a natural disaster can be very stressful for those who
suffered damages and are now navigating the insurance claim process," said
William P. White, the District's insurance commissioner. "We encourage
residents to consider DISB a resource during the recovery period and to
contact us for assistance."
Before calling your insurance company, residents are advised to try to
locate your policy number and other relevant information to expedite
processing your claim. If you can, take photographs or video of the damage
before clean-up or repairs. After you've documented the damage, take steps
to prevent further damage to your property (cover broken windows, leaking
roofs and damaged walls). To view more tips on filing claims and contact
information for insurers operating in the District,

The insurance department has issued guidance to the District's insurers
reminding them of the laws and rights of residents and to encourage insurers
to provide prompt and immediate relief to those policyholders impacted by
the storm, including the temporary suspension of premium payments and
suspension of vacancy provisions for those temporarily displaced. To view
the full insurer guidance,

In addition, although initially labeled "Hurricane Sandy" the District of
Columbia did not sustain hurricane force winds associated with the Sandy
storm therefore insurers may not impose a hurricane deductible on any claims
submitted by District residents.
The department advises residents to contact us at (202) 727-8000 if you
suspect fraud or feel that you are being treated unfairly by your insurance
company.
