Standards of Care for Agencies. What Are Your Responsibilities?
What are agents responsible for? Are insurance agents merely order takers, making sure that the insured gets the insurance equivalent to fries and a soft drink with their order? Or is an insurance agent responsible for knowing every detail about their insureds so that they can provide every possible insurance policy available at the correct limits with the list of conditions?
There are many thoughts about this topic of standards of care, so we have brought in Michael Gay to help us to understand what agencies need to know on this topic. Join us for this timely session.
