Citizens will open the mobile claims center at 12 noon CDT in the Sam’s Club parking lot, 1701 W. 23rd St., Panama City. The Panama City site joins a CRC already operational in Tallahassee.
CRCs provide in-person service to policyholders who may be cut off from their usual means of communication. CRC staff can answer questions and help policyholders report a catastrophe claim. They also can issue advanced payments for additional living expenses, if appropriate.
Citizens representatives and claims handling specialists are now available at two separate sites from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., curfew permitting.
