Specialized programs and services tailored to your needs.

CIRMA offers premier risk management and claim services. Our dynamic programs are designed for you—we work closely with our members to create a flexible service delivery model that fits your needs.

We protect Connecticut. We are Connecticut.

We exclusively serve Connecticut’s public sector. Our dedicated teams intimately understand your unique exposures and work closely with you to develop holistic solutions to address your most complex challenges.

Analytics and insights you can actually use.  

We know what’s happening, what might happen, and how you can manage both the expected and the unexpected. We share data through comprehensive file reviews and sharing significant loss trends and detailed claim management insights-–all to help you see the big picture and put the right strategies in place to manage the cost of insurance losses, big and small. And those strategies we just mentioned? We help you develop, implement, and monitor them, too.

Our legal bench strength is unrivaled, providing the most effective defense for our members.

Our legal partners are the best in the business—and we make sure you have access to them. No suit is too small or complex. Our legal partners have deep Connecticut Public Sector expertise—even when you’re not faced with a legal issue, you’ll get to know our attorney partners through important CIRMA-sponsored learning sessions on issues that matter to you and your constituents.

CIRMA also offers a unique members’ equity distribution program to both self-insured and pool members.

We’re the only carrier in the marketplace that returns equity to members – in fact, we’ve delivered almost $42M back to members since the inception of the program.
