Novant Health Inc. took in February 2020 what it considered to be a proactive financial step â acquiring a COVID-19-related insurance policy to cover expected and unexpected expenses and losses.
The policy was with American Guarantee and Liability Insurance Co. The insurer is a U.S. subsidiary of Zurich Insurance Group Ltd. that Novant has used in other policies.
The policy began Feb. 1, 2020, and lasted exactly a year. There was a liability limit of $1.5 billion, and Novant said it paid $2.21 million in premium costs during the coverage period.
The decision appeared prudent considering Novant has reported at least $470 million in pandemic-related expenses and losses just from March through June 2020. Novant said all of its 15 hospitals and 700 operations have been affected directly by COVID-19.

For years, Winston-Salem leaders have talked about the need to keep native millennials here while also attracting new ones. Iâm nearly 30 years old, with most of those years spent right here in Forsyth County. Iâve chosen to stay here, even though an hour or so east is a major hub for innovative social science research, the Research Triangle.
For sure, the opportunities there are attractive and alluring. Many of my classmates from graduate school are working there now. However, the reason I stay is that, here in Winston-Salem, many people and organizations are dedicating substantial resources to understanding the challenges facing this community, while offering and researching innovative solutions to them. Hence, Winston-Salem offers a lot for millennials like me, especially those with a data research background: the opportunity to tackle real challenges using quantitative methods and the opportunity to potentially solve real-world challenges affecting our own community.
Bipartisan legislation introduced Monday by the Forsyth County House delegation would provide $5 million to expand arts and wellness services at the Elizabeth and Tab Williams Adult Care Center.
House Bill 593 would provide Senior Services Inc. with $3 million from the 2021-22 state budget and an additional $2 million from the 2022-23 budget.
The Williams center services local residents who are living with Alzheimer s and other forms of dementia.
The goal is building a new and expanded center that will bring health, wellness, arts and intergenerational program partners under one roof. The dedicated space would go from 10,000 to 15,000 square feet.
The current center is at 2895 Shorefair Drive in Winston-Salem. The new building would be on the same campus.

Boundless, a public sculpture by North Carolina artist Stephen Hayes commemorating the United States Colored Troops (USCT). Located on the site of the Battle of Forks Road on the grounds of CAM, this life-size bronze sculpture features the life casts of 11 African American men connected to the Battle of Forks Road and its story, including USCT descendants, re-enactors, veterans and community leaders. One of the young men in the sculpture is a descendant of four USCT soldiers.
