Whether your company is large or small, insured or self-insured, self-administered or outsourced, what happens in the management of your casualty claims has a direct impact on your company’s finances and overall risk management program. We all strive for continual improvement in our claims and insurance programs – sometimes it succeeds, and sometimes there are unintended consequences. Hear from seasoned risk managers on their “lessons learned” in claims and risk management, and how to avoid unintended consequences to your broader risk financing and risk management programs. This program is for claims and risk professionals, attorneys, brokers, insurers, and service providers who strive to effectively manage their company’s and client’s casualty claims and total cost of risk.
