       "NAVIGATING THE CLAIMS PROCESS DURING COVID"


MAY 4, 2021
12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Please join LI RIMS for a conversational panel discussion on navigating the claims process during COVID. There is no doubt that COVID has been a disruption of epic proportion, but business continues, and claims happen. 

Our esteemed panelists will bring you their perspective on the claim management process through the eyes of a Claims Account Manager for an Insurance company, a Third-Party Administrator (TPA), and a Trial Attorney. Moderating the panel will be LI RIMS Board Member, David Farino.


Presenters:

Felice Balkin, Senior Account Manager, Claims- Arch Insurance Group
Felice has spent the last 20 years working in various positions within the claims world at enterprises such as Arch Insurance Group, Zurich Insurance, Aon, and ESIS. In her current roll at Arch, she specializes in Workers Compensation Claims and supports both the Construction and National Accounts Group. 


John Lastella, Vice President- Broadspire
John has spent the last 25+ years in the TPA Space. The TPA brings a unique position as the liaison between Market, Company, and Claimant, and ultimately is responsible for managing the claim files. In this vital role, they manage the communications, which in many instances determines the claim experience for all involved.


Jason Beckerman, Partner- Ropers Majeski
Jason is a trial lawyer and litigator who heads Ropers Majeski’s New York Construction practice. He has two decades of experience defending contractors, construction managers, and developers in high-profile complex labor law and construction disputes.
