After hosting our first combined event in March of 2020 right before the U.S. emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic, we had to take a year off in 2021 due to continued Covid-19 restrictions. I am now pleased to announce that LDI will be hosting our second combined, multi-topic event on March 7-8, 2022, at the Higgins Hotel in New Orleans.

LDI began organizing the multi-topic LDI conferences to incorporate the endeavors of the Louisiana Health Care Commission, the Louisiana Automobile Theft and Insurance Fraud Prevention Authority and the Louisiana Property and Casualty Insurance Commission into a single two-day event. We will continue the format of offering health, fraud, and property and casualty break-out sessions that allow attendees to focus on the topics that interest them most and greater opportunity to interact one-on-one with other attendees and presenters. We hope that by hosting the event in the vibrant heart of New Orleans we will attract a wide range of insurance stakeholders and be able to provide a memorable experience for attendees.

Some of the topics slated for this event include the Louisiana homeowner’s market, Covid-19 influences, the rise in auto break-ins and catalytic converter thefts and the cost of health care.

I look forward to welcoming you to my hometown in March for what is bound to be a highly informative and entertaining LDI Conference 2022.
