Insurance now has a place on public television in Central PA, thanks to a partnership between The Insurance Alliance, Westfield Insurance and WITF-TV.

Insurance Insight is a 12-part video series featuring a brief overview of common insurance-related topics. The series gives consumers the education they need to make informed decisions when it comes to making sure their valuable assets are protected. Each episode features a different topic and speaker from our area.
Insurance Insight premiered in April 2008 on WITF-TV with three episodes running in prime-time rotation. They feature:

• Ray Shirk, the President of The Securus Group, talking about why you need to review your insurance annually, and why your insurance isn’t just a “buy it and forget it” service.

• Carolyn Morris, the Director of the Bureau of Consumer Services of the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, covering the characteristics of an insurance policy: what it is, what it isn’t and why it should be seen as a contract.

• Rita Hollada of Insurance Agents and Brokers of PA discussing why flood insurance should be considered by everyone.

Three more episodes will be released in May, with the remaining six scheduled for a Fall 2008 premier.

You can watch or download the available episodes online in the Insurance Insight section of our web site.
