The top three advantages of participating in a group program versus purchasing an individual policy are enhanced coverage, significant savings, and easy access. Personal excess liability insurance provides another layer of liability protection over individual primary policies including homeowner’s, automobile, watercraft, and recreational vehicles. And, the group program can replace or supplement existing personal excess (umbrella) liability policies at a reduced rate. Liability limits are available for $1, 2, 3, 5, and 10 million. Annual premiums start at $308 (with the group discount rate). Click here for more information.*This product is not available in Arizona, Indiana, Kansas, Maine, and Vermont.

Employee Use of Social Media: The Impact of the Virtual World on Disciplining and Firing
|
|
In recent years, social networking websites like Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, and Twitter have exploded in popularity. Many individuals using social networking websites are employees—possibly your employees. You could be held liable for content related to your veterinary practice that is posted by your employees to their personal social networking page. As an employer, it is important for you to stay current on your evolving risks that exist in the virtual world.
A full recording of the webinar presented by CNA and the AVMA PLIT on Thursday, December 8, 2011 is available on the EPL Resources page.
