I have returned this morning from 11 days off. I spent a few days in the Thousand Islands region with some college friends, spent a week with my family on the Jersey Shore, played golf badly, coated myself with SPF infinity sunblock and sat on the beach, read a bunch of books, and pretty much forgot about insurance for two weeks. Today, I bear a striking resemblance to the picture displayed above.
Nevertheless, it's a new dawn, it's a new day ... sorry, lapsed into song for a minute there. But it is a new day, because New York's law governing the use of certificates of insurance took effect one week ago today (I celebrated by taking a nap on the beach in Ocean Grove, NJ.) Accordingly, the questions from IIABNY members have been coming in fast and furious in my absence. There is one question that we've gotten from all corners of the state, so I think it's worth addressing in an addendum to my earlier post about the myths surrounding the law.
