Ben AllenGUEST
I couldn't help but wonder why you have to get to your state senator just to get basic help.
Ben AllenGUEST
Why can't you get that through your insurer? Why not through the Department of Insurance? Well, it turns out there's only 34 people handling these calls at the department.
Ben AllenGUEST
That's less than one per one million Californians.
Ben AllenGUEST
So one of the many things I want to do is beef up the customer service operation at the department.
6 MINS LATER
Ben AllenGUEST
Which is a big, big, meaty and important topic for a variety of reasons.
Ben AllenGUEST
That is largely under the control of the governor through the Department of Managed Health Care.
Ben AllenGUEST
But everything else, I mean, home, auto, life insurance and long-term care, pet insurance and title insurance, all those things, workers' comp, those are under the Department of Insurance at the insurance commissioner's office.
Ben AllenGUEST
Right.
Marcia RodriguezGUEST
So if you show them that they're going to be protected.
Marcia RodriguezGUEST
And they will say, where's my money going to be? How am I going to know that I'm not going to lose my money? Well, this is not controlled by the federal department, but we do have the National Association, we have the Guarantee Association, and we have the Department of Insurance overseeing these companies and making sure that your money is going to be protected.
Marcia RodriguezGUEST
So they just want security.
Marcia RodriguezGUEST
They want to make sure that they're not going to lose money, that they don't have any downsides of the market, and how much interest they're going to make.

Randy PollackGUEST
And then the right-hand side is the psych one that was filed with that.
Randy PollackGUEST
And that causes those issues that I just described internally in the carrier side and then with the employer and gets the attention of what I'll show you in a few minutes from the Department of Insurance and all these organizations that are now looking at this.
Randy PollackGUEST
But I mentioned a few minutes ago that this has been an explosion.
Randy PollackGUEST
And I'll give you the data that comes straight from the WCRD on this.

Sam MadoniaHOST
Meanwhile, and I guess I would consider this downtown, but just...
Sam MadoniaHOST
Department of Insurance currently located in West Washington near Springfield High School is moving to West Wabash in the Wells Fargo building.
Sam MadoniaHOST
Another group of workers not in downtown Springfield.
Sam MadoniaHOST
This detector said we need to revive downtown, not the way to take state offices and move them out of the downtown area.
Julia PaskinHOST
L.A. County's lawsuit seeks to stop State Farm's practices and get restitution for policyholders.
Julia PaskinHOST
In May, the California Department of Insurance found State Farm committed almost 400 violations of insurance regulations and 220 randomly selected claims.
Julia PaskinHOST
State Farm said in a statement to LAist it strongly disagrees with LA County's characterization.
Julia PaskinHOST
In other news, if you are heading to Big Bear Lake maybe to beat the heat, keep people and pets out of the water.
Rafael BroshiGUEST
We understand regulation.
Rafael BroshiGUEST
I talked to the Department of Insurance myself in New York and California to get our products involved and a few other states as well.
Rafael BroshiGUEST
We wrote the policy wording together with Hartford Steam Boiler.
Rafael BroshiGUEST
So we've done the kind of things and we saw the nuance within those highly regulated industries that Other founders have not and maybe pivoted towards insurance just because it's a huge, huge space.
Connor MacIvorHOST
A home warranty may be requested, offered, declined, or negotiated.
Connor MacIvorHOST
California Department of Insurance explains that home warranties are service contracts, not the same thing as homeowners insurance, and notes that they're sometimes included in a purchase and often paid by a seller or their agent.
Connor MacIvorHOST
sometimes is not always, often is not mandatory.
