Insurers resort to remote inspections

At least some insurers who are often quick to disaster scenes are because of the pandemic resorting to remote inspection and other tools to facilitate settlements for the uninsured.  That’s what at least one roofer is telling clients who’ve been waiting to see and hear from their insurance companies.  One such company resorting to remote work is Nationwide.  That company announces that while it is responding to the needs of their insurance in the Seneca area, it is adhering to areas where there are shelter-in-orders in place.  According to Nationwide, if a claim requires on-site inspection, it will follow social-distancing procedures and health-and-safety practice recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Those insured by Nationwide can get personal help with claims through Nationwide.com or by calling 1/800-421-3535.
