CLIENT ADVISORY: Why the CLASS Act Provides Broker Opportunity

broker opportunity

Questions about the adequacy of the CLASS Act present an opportunity for brokers and consultants to discuss alternatives.


The promise of the Community Living Assistance Services and Support (CLASS) Act falls short of what is already on the market today. You have an opportunity to work closely with your clients so that they understand the difference between CLASS and private long-term care insurance offerings. Read more...

LEGISLATION UPDATE: Generic Pharma 

In a previous client advisory on the impacts of Federal preemption, we examined how generic drug makers could find themselves with the same liabilities as branded drug makers. The Supreme Court's recent comments demonstrate the relevance of the issue, as explored in this article on nytimes.com. (Note: AmWINS claims no copyright or ownership of the article to which this link refers.)
