RE: [U2] I *was* Going to the New York U2U Class...
Comp covers injuries while working. If you were hurt in an accident from the airport to the conference, since you were only there for work, it is likely a Worker Comp claim that would pay the medical bills. You personal insurance would likely deny the claim since it 'happened in the course of work duties' unless you have personal riders to fix that. Call your insurance agent for 'real' information - I just know what I hear... And you can't trust 50% of that!! My whole reason for the post - you need to make sure ducks are in a row with whoever watches your ducks!

That's why I called -- it appears to be a TERRIBLY written rule/law -- CNA is who notified me of it, and if you read the 'Comp Blogs' it IS causing them to lose business. It wasn't well thought out it appears. As long as you're not 'working' there, you're OK, or if your carrier by default gives you some sort of NY rider. I'd have to add a full policy in my case, or any issue I had there that would be 'Comp-able' would be denied everywhere -- by CNA locally and by New York - both because I didn't have the right coverage. So - not worth the risk or buying a policy since I don't normally have work there anyway. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Banker Sent: Friday, October 12, 2007 9:26 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] I *was* Going to the New York U2U Class...

RE: [U2] I *was* Going to the New York U2U Class...
That's how I'm reading it. You would have to work for 30 days within a year period for it to apply. So a convention for 7 days wouldn't apply. But 5 Conventions for 7 days each would.

All I know is what CNA told me and the Albany Workers Comp compliance office told me.
