NEW YORK, NY, September 15 — In the aftermath of the Hurricane Katrina, the U.S. insurance industry has established the Hurricane Insurance Information Center (HIIC) in Jackson, MS. Additional centers will be opened in other Gulf Coast locations as conditions permit.
The HIIC will act as a primary source of insurance information to the media and conduct an active consumer outreach program in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
A web site, www.disasterinformation.org, will offer claim filing tips, provide general information on insurance coverages and refer people to insurers, government agencies, and other sources of assistance.
