Getting a Handle on Commercial Auto Insurance Rates

Getting a Handle on Commercial Auto Insurance Rates

While most companies focus on driver training to help reduce the chances of accidents pushing up their insurance premiums, many executives have been frustrated to see their rates climb.

The top two factors affecting your commercial auto premiums are your history of claims and the driving records of your individual drivers. To get a handle on your insurance rates you should focus on hiring on mature, experienced, responsible drivers.

Once you have selected solid people, the next step is to enforce safety standards and provide them with adequate rest and the tools they need to drive safely.

New technologies and advances in underwriting are making it possible for employers to take a more proactive approach to risk management and claims reduction. The ultimate goal is to lower your premiums. Here are some steps you can take to keep your premiums down:

Monitor your drivers’ records – Consider using an automated service to monitor your drivers’ records. Drivers don’t always self-report their tickets, accidents and DUIs. Automated driver record monitoring systems can routinely check for new violations, DUI or DWI convictions, license suspensions, revocations, and approaching license renewal dates. You get a report each month, and you can take action, if warranted.

Add GPS tracking to your vehicles – Advances in GPS tracking and displays enable you not just to track your vehicles’ whereabouts and control malingering, but also monitor for speeding.

Turn the public into your eyes and ears – You’ve certainly seen those signs on the backs of commercial vehicles that say “How Am I Driving? Dial 555-555-5555.” They work. But if you do get complaints, it’s important to follow up on them, and in writing.

Pre-screen all new hires – Before hiring, pull an applicant’s DMV records. You want people with one point or less on their licenses. Incidents happen. But if a driver has two or more points, you don’t want them driving for you.

If you find a DUI, don’t hire them – You don’t want someone with a drunk-driving arrest on the road for you, and you don’t want to be paying their insurance premiums.

Raise your deductible – For best results, keep your deductible above $2,500 or so. This keeps the fender-benders off the books. The deductible is usually trivial compared to the potential claim if your driver causes bodily injury to someone else, anyway.

Use the savings on your premium and bank them for future use in case of fender-benders. Or you can funnel it into more liability or umbrella coverage.

Maintain an ongoing safe-driver program – Set up an incentive program to reward or give bonuses to drivers when they reach milestones like a certain number of miles of incident-free driving. You can also provide bonuses if their safe driving helps reduce your premiums.

Safe-driving clause – If your state allows, consider a safe-driving clause in the employment agreement.

Don’t overspend on vehicles – The more expensive the vehicle, the higher the premiums.

Consider whether you need collision coverage – If you have an aging fleet, or you can afford to replace one of your vehicles on occasion, consider cancelling collision coverage on your policy.

The takeaway

Employers that put in the effort to ensure they employ drivers with good records, and can show insurers they have put programs and measures in place to control their claims experience, have a better chance at taming their premiums.

Besides lower premiums, there are other benefits: Your business will pay out less in deductible charges, you have a safer workforce, and you spend less time and maintain productivity when you don’t have to deal with the aftermath of accidents and the insurance claims process.

Your New Year Insurance Checklist

Your New Year Insurance Checklist

As 2021 gets underway and while you’re making New Year’s resolutions, you should also resolve to review the state of your business’s insurance program.

The best way to do that is to start by reviewing your enterprise’s activities in the past year and how they may affect your insurance policies in the new year. What you find as you go through the following checklist may surprise you.

Did your operations change last year? Workers’ compensation and commercial general liability (CGL) insurance premiums are based in part on the type of work your business does. If your business changed, the insurance company may revise how it classifies your operations when it audits your records. This could cause your premiums to increase; inform the insurer now to avoid a surprise later.

Did your payroll and sales change? These premiums are based on the amounts of your payrolls and sales. Employment practices liability insurance premiums are based on the number of employees. If you had a good year and these numbers increased, expect to pay additional premiums at audit time. Conversely, if both shrunk, ask your insurer to reduce its estimates so you can get the return premium now.

Did you acquire, form or sell any businesses? CGL policies typically provide short-term coverage for some newly acquired or formed entities. After 30 or 90 days, that coverage disappears unless you report the new entities to the insurer.

Workers’ comp policies do not automatically cover a new entity. If your business and the new entity have common ownership, you may be able to add that entity to your policy, but you must report it to the insurer.

Did your properties change? Did you buy or sell any buildings? Lease new ones? Add on to or upgrade any buildings? Buy new equipment? Make sure your insurer knows about these changes. Some property insurance policies provide limited automatic coverage, but only for 30 days or so.

Also, the amounts of insurance on your properties should reflect the cost of replacing them. If your building is 30% bigger than it was this time last year, you may be underinsured.

Did your auto schedule change? If you have sold, replaced or added any vehicles, make sure your insurance company has an up-to-date list of all vehicles.

Do you need new or additional insurance? Could you afford to pay for legal costs, settlements, penalties, lost income and recovery measures if you were sued over a network data breach or suffered a ransomware attack? If not, you may need cyber insurance.

Could a client sue you for alleged errors or omissions in your work? If so, you might need professional liability insurance.

Also, you may need greater amounts of general liability and automobile liability insurance, especially if you work for other firms. They often require their vendors and contractors to carry high insurance limits. You may need a commercial umbrella liability policy for additional amounts of insurance.

The takeaway

You’ve worked hard to build your business, and your work deserves protection. By using this checklist, you will get a good start on protecting what you have while you work in the next 12 months to make it grow.

Three Major Cyber Threats to Businesses

Three Major Cyber Threats to Businesses

Cybersecurity threats have continued growing, in fact they been ramping up during 2020, and the trend according to experts is that the risks will continue to grow at an exponential rate.

And small to mid-sized firms that think they will fly under the radar of cyber threats are sadly mistaken, as they are usually easier pickings for criminals. Worse yet, one incident could put a firm out of business.

To protect your company from attack, here are three cybersecurity threats you should prepare for now.

Ransomware attacks

In a ransomware attack, hackers access your data and hold it hostage until you pay some type of ransom. This means business owners have to choose between losing their data or paying a hefty sum.

Ransomware is usually delivered through phishing e-mails that appear legitimate at first glance.

The e-mail generally includes an attachment or link containing malicious code and once an unsuspecting employee clicks on it, they unleash the code first into their workstation and later into your network.

To protect against ransomware, the Small Business Administration recommends that you and your staff:

  • Verify web addresses before downloading e-mail attachments.
  • Don’t give out personal information about your company to unsolicited callers.
  • Don’t give out financial information about your company over e-mail.

Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks

These are relatively new attacks when cyber criminals intercept and alter incoming traffic. Once intercepted, the hackers redirect the victim’s browser to a malicious website where they can steal and even change sensitive information.

These MITM attacks are usually initiated by malware.

The best way to combat MITM attacks is by using some type of endpoint authentication to make it harder for hackers to intercept traffic. For instance, passwords are becoming increasingly unreliable, so two-factor identification methods (like a text message with a secret code being sent) can provide additional security.

Lack of awareness

Ninety percent of the time when hackers gain access to a company’s database and network, it’s due to human error, typically when an employee clicks on a link or opens a malicious attachment to an e-mail, unleashing the attack.

Other ways criminals gain access include when an employee leaves a laptop in an unsecured location, or they send sensitive company information to an unintended recipient.

The best way to thwart cyber criminals is by training your employees on cyber-security best practices:

  • The creation of strong passwords and changing passwords regularly.
  • Never installing unauthorized software.
  • How to stay safe online and on social media.
  • Strategies for responsible e-mail usage.
  • How to keep their devices secure while they’re at the office and away.
  • What to do in the event of a cyber attack.

The final backstop

Any firm that stores sensitive information and company intellectual property on a network may want to consider a cyber insurance policy. As threats have evolved, so have insurance products – data breach insurance and cyber liability insurance – and even they will vary in terms of coverage from one insurer to the next:

Data breach insurance – This will cover your business if you have a breach of personal identifiable information or personal health information is lost or stolen, either by hackers or a forgetful employee losing a laptop. Policies will usually cover:

  • Costs of notifying affected customers, patients or employees.
  • Costs of hiring a public relations firm.
  • Costs of offering credit monitoring services to data breach victims.

Some policies will also include or offer as a rider extortion coverage, which helps cover the amount you paid if someone has taken your business’s data and demanded a ransom.

Cyber liability insurance – This helps cover financial losses due to cyber attacks or other tech-related risks, as well as privacy investigations or lawsuits following an attack. It will usually cover:

  • Legal services.
  • Notification expenses to alert affected customers and employees that their personal information was compromised.
  • Extortion paid to recover locked files in a ransomware attack.
  • Lost income from a network outage.
  • Lawsuits related to customer or employee privacy and security.
  • Regulatory fines.

The takeaway

The cybersecurity threat grows daily. Make sure you train your employees well and warn them against clicking on malicious links by training them on how to identify suspicious e-mails.

Also, to ensure you’re not bankrupted by an attack, you should consider some type of cyber insurance as it can provide a much-needed blanket of protection.

Documenting Small Safety Incidents Key to Preventing Major Ones

Protecting Your Firm from Employee Benefit Lawsuits

Employment practices and employee benefit-related lawsuits are on the rise – and employers have to be eternally vigilant when it comes to meeting their compliance obligations as plan sponsors.

Take the case of Visteon, a global automotive industry supplier, which outsourced its payroll and enrollment/disenrollment functions to outside plan administrators.

But because of internal mistakes at the firms that Visteon outsourced these noncore HR functions to, some of its former employees who should have received COBRA eligibility notices after leaving the firm never received them. At first it was just a handful, but ultimately 741 co-workers signed on to a class-action lawsuit.

Visteon argued in court that it was not its own mistakes that had caused the error, and that it had made a good-faith effort to hire outside experts to take over this function for them. Payroll and enrollment, after all, are not core competencies for an auto parts supplier, the company said, and it had been relying on the expertise of these other payroll companies to properly execute these functions and provide these notices.

The court didn’t buy Visteon’s argument. Rather, it held the company responsible in 2013 for poor internal tracking systems, negligence in overseeing its third party administrators, and failure to accept responsibility for its COBRA notification efforts.

That exposed them to the statutory penalty of $110 per worker per day for failure to provide notification.

In the end, for doing what tens of thousands of employers are doing nationwide – relying on third party administrators to handle payroll functions that are regulated under COBRA – Visteon was slapped with $1.8 million in penalties.

Employers are frequent lawsuit targets

As much as companies rely on their employees to generate profits, simply having them around and administering their benefit plans potentially exposes employers to significant possible liability.

According to a survey from insurer CNA, employment-related disputes are the fastest-growing category of civil lawsuits in America.

Employers face risk from the potential of lawsuits employees may bring for alleged failure to fulfill their fiduciary duties as sponsors of retirement plans under ERISA, for example, or for accidental or unauthorized leaks of personally identifiable information, which carries significant penalties under HIPAA.

Sponsors of defined contribution pension plans, such as 401(k)s, are particularly frequent targets of lawsuits for various fiduciary failures, errors or omissions.

Protecting your firm from legal action

So how can employers protect themselves against the potential costs of employee benefit-related litigation? You should:

  • Carefully monitor your plan third party administrators. Insist that they document their own compliance practices to you. Don’t take their word for it.
  • Reconcile your own lists of recently departed employees with your payroll company’s COBRA notifications.
  • Understand that your commercial general liability insurance policy usually will not cover you against liability arising from improper administration of employee benefit plans, ERISA, COBRA, USERRA, wage and hour laws, Title VII related lawsuits, and the like.
  • Consider employment practices liability insurance. This coverage will often protect against lawsuits like this and cover legal expenses, and even judgments.
  • Conduct regular reviews with advisers of investments in pension and 401(k) plans. Investments should be reviewed at least annually – and quarterly is not unusual.
  • Ensure that fees paid to 401(k) and other plan administrators are not excessive. You don’t have to go with the cheapest provider (that can be trouble, too). But if you do choose a higher-fee vendor, document why you made that decision so that you can show your reasoning in court and defend your decision-making as sound and prudent.
  • Invest in data security and HR compliance expertise.

New Rules Require Health Plans to Cover COVID-19 Vaccines, More

New Rules Require Health Plans to Cover COVID-19 Vaccines, More

The Trump administration has issued new interim final rules that set out accelerated coverage requirements for COVID-19 preventative services and covering out-of-network testing for the coronavirus.

There are two parts to the interim final rules:

  • One requires that COVID-19 preventative services – including vaccines – be covered without any cost-sharing on the part of plan enrollees.
  • The second creates a reimbursement formula for insurers to pay for COVID-19 testing conducted on their enrollees by out-of-network providers.

The new rules, which implement important parts of the CARES Act, were rolled out by the Treasury, Labor, and Health and Human Services departments.

If you are a plan sponsor, you need to know how this affects your group health plan so you can help your staff understand how testing and preventative COVID-19 services are covered.

COVID-19 preventative services

The CARES Act requires that COVID-19-related preventative services be covered within 15 business days after a doctor recommends that a patient needs them.

COVID-19 preventative services must be covered without any out-of-pocket costs on behalf of health plan enrollees, whether they receive those services inside or outside their plan’s provider network. The reason for this is that as vaccines start rolling out, not all providers may have access in the beginning.

The rules are required to ensure that people who need vaccines can access them without any hardship to help put an end to the pandemic.

Under the rules insurers must pay out-of-network providers a “reasonable amount,” which would be determined by the prevailing market rates that providers are charging health plans for the service. That may be the Medicare rate, the regulations note.

The rules cover more preventative services than just vaccines. They must also cover services that are “integral” to delivering preventative services, such as administrative costs.

Finally, if a preventative service, including a COVID-19 vaccine, is not billed separately from an office visit, and the primary purpose of the office visit is to deliver the recommended service or vaccine, the plan or insurer may not charge cost-sharing for the office visit.

COVID-19 tests by out-of-network providers

The new rules also set out the parameters for how health plans will pay out-of-network providers for COVID-19 diagnostic tests they perform on the latter’s enrollees.

On testing, the CARES Act requires that:

  • Health care providers post on their websites the cash price or any lower negotiated price for COVID-19 diagnostic testing. The “cash price” is the charge that applies to a walk-in patient who pays cash for the service.
  • Health insurers pay out-of-network providers of COVID-19 diagnostic tests the price posted on the provider’s website during the public health emergency.

The takeaway

If you sponsor a group health plan, you should communicate the new rules to your participating employees so that they are aware of the no out-of-pocket rules for COVID-19 preventative services.

You should also keep up with the news about when vaccines will be rolled out in your area, so you can encourage your staff to get vaccinated.

The new rules will sunset at the end of the public health emergency. Currently, that’s slated for Jan. 21, 2021, but will likely to be extended as it is unlikely a vaccine can be rolled out en masse by that time.
