Effective February 7, 2013, SeaBright Insurance Company (“Seabright”), a Seattle-based insurance company specializing in workers compensation, entered into run-off. In 2012, Enstar Group Limited (“Enstar”), a run-off specialist, purchased SeaBright. SeaBright continues to manage existing claims but no longer writes new or renewal business, which means that premium activity has slowed down. In 2015, a major change occurred when all of SeaBright’s net liabilities (i.e. loss reserves associated with its prior workers comp business) were shifted to an Enstar affiliate, Clarendon National Insurance Company, through a reinsurance agreement. Circumstances that led the company to run-off: SeaBright was placed into run-off driven by weakened underwriting performance associated with reserve strengthening actions for accident years 2007 through 2009, primarily related to increasing medical cost trends. Additionally, SeaBright was facing marketplace challenges associated with its geographic and coverage lines expansion. Seabright has had to deal with significant pressure from its workers comp book developing adversely year-over-year and having to liquidate investments to satisfy claims and expenses. The reinsurance contract with Clarendon did provide major relief but SeaBright still remains a going concern and without premiums coming in and asset base rapidly shrinking, its solvency status as an insurance company remains questionable. The key now is to track the level of credit risk

Bell California is a small blue collar community which is one of the poorest cities in Los Angeles County, where the politicians had an easy time of taking advantage of the community. There are just two main streets with one having small shops and another a few blocks away with a few commercial stores. Many of the residents that live in Bell work for the city or receive public aid so not many people would speak out against any corruption that might be occurring within the city. Much of the residents are Hispanic or Latino and many do not have a high school education. Because of this fact it made it easy for the local politicians to raise taxes for public services, give city contracts worth tens of millions of dollars to associates and give

The Affordable Care act was design so that all Americans would have some type of medical coverage, this meant the responsibility of each American to enroll and register themselves or their families, by using the new healthcare marketplace system. The federal government gave the authority to individual states to decide whether to implement the Medicaid expansion, most of the states chose to do so, but most of the business is claimed that it was too much of a financial burden to provide health insurance for all of their employees, most of the employers save money by raising rates employees with families, also this would affect the marketplace in different states, each marketplace has different rates.

ABC will assume the risk and expenses of construction overruns. Refer to ASC 840-40-55-2 for Criteria for Determining Whether the Lessee Should Be Considered the Owner of the Asset Under Construction. The risk will increase if the Landlord does the construction. The Landlord has little to no incentive to keep costs within the agreed tenant improvement amount since the Landlord does not have to pay for any excess. For this reason, it may be preferable for ABC to suggest another way to handle tenant improvements.

Thank you for discussing this matter with me. I understand that the concern is the timeliness of the vendor's return to work notifications. At the present time, it seems like the root-cause is Cigna not following the current 5-day process. 5 days should provide the vendor adequate time to confirm with the employee they still intend to return to work, clarify any restrictions with the treating provider, and notify the business area of the return to work plan. My recommendation would be for the vendor to enforce the 5-day process. If the issue persists, we should reevaluate at that time whether the process was followed or needs to be revised.
