LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas Insurance Commissioner Alan McClain released the following tips for Arkansas consumers ahead of the next bout of severe weather in the forecast:
“Arkansas is again under the threat of severe weather,” said Arkansas Insurance Commissioner Alan McClain. “ I strongly encourage Arkansans to follow these simple steps to ensure that any loss or damage they may suffer can be handled as quickly as possible. The Arkansas Insurance Department (AID) is ready to help any consumer requiring assistance with the insurance needs following severe weather.”
Arkansans needing assistance can call AID’s Consumer Services Division toll free at 1-800-852-5494.
Do you have the right insurance?
This is the main question Arkansas consumers should ask themselves. McClain encourages Arkansans to check their coverage. Not all policies cover water damage, debris or tree removal, sewer backups due to flooding, or additional living expenses if disaster forces you to be displaced from your home. You should also check limits, including coverage for contents.
