Claims Quotations | Page 3

I think that's a psychological level more than anything else, but what's key is that the jobless claims are climbing.

It is just too massive for any private insurer to handle. The government has to have a role there, and the insurers need to have a role in settling claims so we can develop a better system for the future.

It is important we realize everyone pays the price. Fraudulent and erroneous claims rob our Medicare fund and often cheat people out of services they deserve to receive.

I went to high school in Sesser, in Royalton, and then graduated from Valier. My dad was a miner, and we lived wherever he was working. That meant a lot of moving. That's why I don't feel like I am from any one town; just call me a Franklin County native. In fact, I joke and say sometimes that both Benton and Sesser claim me -- Benton claims that I'm from Sesser, and Sesser claims that I'm from Benton,

It is a modest dollar negative; the trade data combined with the claims data, but the focus this morning is very much on digesting the BOJ and on payrolls tomorrow.

Jamie disliked all forms of pomp and pomposity so his spirit would return to haunt me should I make exaggerated claims about his virtues, ...

Penn State strongly believes the conduct of the university in this matter was legitimate, non-discriminatory and non-retaliatory. And the facts do not substantiate the claims made in this lawsuit.

Our people are on conference calls right now, working through a lot of the issues like where should we be sending our people, where are the majority of claims coming in at the moment, what is the primary damage.

Our first quarter results were affected by comparatively higher claims expense in both our employee benefits and individual disability businesses, which we have said can fluctuate widely from quarter to quarter. The slower rate of premium growth for the quarter was largely attributable to the effects of our ongoing commitment to pricing discipline in what was noted as a very price competitive renewal and sales environment for the quarter.

Over 5,000 years, states have made surprisingly consistent claims about their duties. They have promised to protect people from threats; promote their welfare; deliver justice and also, perhaps less obviously, uphold truth - originally truths about the cosmos, and more recently truths drawn from reason and knowledge.

Road claims like these have become the weapon of choice by modern-day sagebrush activists trying to wrest control from federal government. It's time to stop.

Rising repair costs have increased the likelihood that damages exceed the vehicle's market value, causing an insurance carrier to total the vehicle rather than repair it. However, claims settlement satisfaction is considerably lower among customers who have had their vehicles totaled, often because they owe more on their vehicle loan than the settlement amount.

People who live in rural areas typically file fewer claims than people who live in cities. And the claims that they do file cost less to settle.

Regarding some of the issues raised by Mr. Salinger in recent days, they are again a combination of falsehoods and claims that are only partially based on the truth and, when taken out of context, are completely misleading.

Referring the issue to the UN Security Council moves Iran a step closer to possible sanctions, which despite Iran's claims otherwise could lead to Iran halting its oil exports.

Receiving the Excellence in Claims/Loss Prevention Award three times in the past five years demonstrates ABF's commitment to proper cargo handling. We recognize that each pallet, carton or box is a critical part of our customers' business and that loss, damage or delay harms that business, ... The low turnover among our conscientious, experienced employees, coupled with management emphasis and training, results in the best claims experience in our industry. When specific problem areas are uncovered, we use focus groups and the ABF Quality Process to address the root causes; we typically involve our customers and dock employees in this effective problem resolution process. This approach has positioned ABF as the premiere LTL carrier when it comes to delivering shipments on time, intact, and damage free.

Passport Health has been a competitor for many years and we are honored that they selected us as the claims management partner for their customers. We are excited about having the opportunity to serve the Passport Health customer base, and look forward to meeting their claims management needs with our comprehensive solution.

Success in war underpins the claims to greatness of many presidents.

Logic would dictate that, given the volume, the timetable for settling claims may be a little longer than normal.

Logic dictates contractors can't be self-employed and employees simultaneously. It might only be a matter of time before we see truly joined up government, whereby claims by contractors for employment rights automatically trigger tax investigations.

Marketers must have rigorous scientific substantiation for the claims they make. In this case, the claims were inflated, but the science just wasn't there.

I think overall there is some disenchantment with the president's tax cuts -- not themselves, but because it doesn't seem to be doing what he claims it's doing, which is to overcome the job loss and create new jobs.

It doesn't make sense, unless the strategy was to bring added pressure on Novell to settle. Usually you have your claims well put together before you bring the lawsuit.

It is both an acknowledgment of the history of what took place as well as an effective means of assisting elderly Hungarian Jewish survivors through the important social welfare projects to be administered by the Claims Conference.

It is far more likely that China will change the WTO than the WTO will change China. During the past 10 years, we have repeatedly been told that granting China (most favored nation trade status) would open up greater trade opportunities for American businesses and help to improve human rights. Both of these claims have proven to be unfounded.

I think synergies are a lot like UFOs: Lots of people claim to have seen them, but few can actually prove they exist.

That weakness on the claims front is offsetting the durable impact.

That suggests to me that the claims that there were lots of killings at the two major shelters were exaggerated,

I would never sing in public. Because I've got a horrible voice. It just sounds bad. I mean, Tea claims to like to hear me sing, and I think it's because I enjoy it so much. We sing in the car ... And she air-drums. This is why we have tinted windows. A lot of people think it's because we don't want people to see us and follow us home, but it's really because we're making fools of ourselves.

Most of the customers were more than cooperative in getting their claims filed so we could get right to work on them.

White spaces represent a significant untapped opportunity for new product innovation and unlicensed spectrum use. While we may be able to guess at some of the products that might develop because of this bill, the real benefits will probably derive from those that we can't imagine today. Thankfully, advances in technology have eliminated any real claims of harmful interference by existing licensees in this spectrum band.

White House claims that they are fully cooperating with this investigation seem at odds with the President feeling the need to hire a private lawyer.

While claims at 350,000 or so would not be a disaster, they would be consistent with (monthly) payrolls trending at only about 125,000 -- not enough to push the unemployment rate any lower.

U.S. healthcare insurers process over five billion claims annually and the ability to accurately verify medical necessity coverage early in the process is expected to be a major benefit in expediting claims processing for providers and their patients.

Those claims have not gone away. He should not duck the issue.

We are disappointed the court did not rule on Wal-Mart's fraud claims against Mr. Coughlin but instead upheld the release agreements on a technicality. We will file an amended complaint with additional evidence of fraud and fraudulent inducement.
