Company Recognized for Its Contributions to the Advancement of Insurance Technology

FREMONT, Mich., Sept. 17 /PRNewswire/ --Fremont Michigan InsuraCorp, Inc. (OTC BB: FMMH) is committed to remaining at the forefront of technology and has made significant investments to support that effort.  As a result, the Company now offers one of the most efficient automated interfaces for agents in the state, according to a recent survey by Michigan AGENT magazine.  The latest accolades for the Company's efforts come from the Applied Systems Client Network (ASCnet), an industry trade association representing more than 80,000 insurance professionals worldwide, which has recognized Fremont Insurance with two awards, the "Applied Systems Interface" award and the "Adoption – Real Time" award.

Each year, ASCnet's Industry Solution Committee recognizes carrier partners and individuals who have worked closely with the ASCnet membership to advance agency technology and user interfaces through innovation and other contributions.  The award categories include "Ease of Doing Business" and "Adoption and Achievement" for Real Time, Download, and Industry Standards & Initiatives.  This year the awards were presented at ASCnet's 2010 TENCon event in Chicago on Sept. 16.

The "Applied Systems Interface" award received by Fremont Insurance is earned by companies that demonstrate a commitment to developing a comprehensive agency interface – including download, real time and real-time rating.  The "Adoption – Real Time" award is a single award given to the one company that has excelled as a quick adopter of technology that promotes or supports the workflows of ASCnet members.

"Fremont Insurance works closely with our agents to ensure we are meeting their needs and providing the services and resources they require to run their businesses better," said Kurt Detmer, vice president of marketing for Fremont Insurance.  "Agents have told us that having technology that enables efficient customer service is critical to their success.  While these awards recognize our use of technology and development of an effective agency interface, in a larger sense they underscore our ongoing commitment to our agency partners."
