 
With every new season, it’s the perfect time to review your insurance coverage. With warmer weather comes new activities and potential risks, from spring storms to home maintenance projects. Reviewing your insurance policies now can help ensure you’re prepared for whatever the new season brings.
Here are some spring preparedness tips:
While the Maryland Insurance Administration does not sell insurance and we cannot recommend a particular policy or insurance company, we do want to help you learn what types of coverage are available. Additionally, we are here to assist you if you have a complaint involving an insurer, an insurance producer, public adjuster or adviser.
Make updating your home inventory part of your spring cleaning. The Home Inventory App makes it easy to create a record of all your belongings, including the ability to scan barcodes and upload photos of your items. You can also create a list or take photos/videos. Click here for more information.
An accurate home inventory gives your insurance carrier the information they need to help settle your claims. Get more tips on disaster mitigation and how to file insurance claims within the app.

The insurance industry has room for a huge variety of educational backgrounds, interests and skillsets. "We can be a state that rewards, celebrates and elevates a culture of service -- we must be," said Gov. Wes Moore. Come and join a great team with a strong culture of service! The Maryland Insurance Administration is hiring for all levels of experience.
If you know federal workers who are transitioning, please share resources from the Governor's office. Governor Wes Moore announced a series of actions to help Marylanders impacted by federal workforce layoffs, firings, and changes to federal funding. Read more here.
