Greensburg Damage Tops $153 Million
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- The Kansas Insurance Department says property damage from the Greensburg tornado will likely exceed $153 million, not counting uninsured losses. Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger says 33 insurance companies have already paid out $82 million, a figure she believes is just over half of the total losses. The amount doesn't include losses to uninsured property.
Praeger says 80 percent of affected policyholders had received emergency funds from their insurance companies within a week of the disaster. And she says that out of nearly two-thousand claims, the Insurance Department has received only one official written complaint.
