I am interested in getting a perspective on how the insurance industry can help manage its risks from claims of foodborne illness. Short trip – I’ll be back in Seattle on Wednesday.

As part of its enforcement activities, the Food and Drug Administration sends warning letters to entities under its jurisdiction. Some letters are not posted for public view until weeks or months after they are sent. Business owners have 15 days to respond to FDA warning letters. Warning letters often are not issued until a company has been given months to years to correct problems.

We’ve both done so at the height of federal service, in academic settings, as well as within the private sector. That’s why we believe we’re well qualified to provide a perspective on this issue. There aren’t too many topics more important for a nation than its ability to provide its citizens access to safe, nutritious, and available food.
