Agency re-contracting

We are pleased to announce Midrox Insurance Co. has joined Statewide Underwriting Services (SWUS). Statewide is one organization with three underwriting companies: Midrox Insurance Co., Claverack Cooperative, and Mid-Hudson Co-Operative Ins. Co. Whichever company you have represented in the past; you now are an agent appointed with all three companies, with more tools and opportunities to write business together.

We look forward to offering BLUE360; a new agent system to quote, bind, and issue all personal lines for all three companies before year-end. Additional plans for similar capabilities on commercial lines are well underway.

We are also re-contracting all agents from all three member carriers with one new Agency Agreement, to improve the ease of doing business. By early January 2020, there will be one combined Agent’s Profit Sharing Program as well.

No matter your company affiliation, you will now have one Agency Agreement for improved consistency and efficiency. This helps us facilitate moving to one new agency code, regardless of whichever company with which you place business going forward. All of your renewal business has migrated over to your new agency code(s) as well. This consolidating step is in preparation of eventually having one common new underwriting, policy admin, accounting/billing, and claims systems for all SWUS member companies.

There will be more agency communications to follow along with several breakfast meeting events to meet in person. We’ll also send out email, eblast, and newsletter communications to keep you apprised.

Please note that our new email format is: [email protected]

Meanwhile, we need your urgent help to please sign and return the new Agency Agreement if you haven’t already done so. If you need these documents sent again, please email the contacts below. Please return the following:
