How can an insured's damaged accounts receivable records be covered?

The appropriate way to cover an insured's damaged accounts receivable records is through the accounts receivable coverage form. This form specifically addresses the loss of income due to uncollectible accounts resulting from damage to the records that document these receivables. It provides coverage for the direct loss of accounts receivable and includes reimbursement for the costs associated with recreating those records as well as any lost income due to the inability to collect on those accounts.

Other options may provide some insurance coverage, but they do not specifically address the unique needs associated with accounts receivable. For instance, a business interruption policy focuses on loss of income due to operational disruptions but does not directly cover damaged accounts receivable records. A general liability policy typically covers third-party bodily injury and property damage but does not extend to assets like accounts receivable. Lastly, a property endorsement may offer additional coverage for physical property but would not specifically cater to the intricacies involved in protecting and recovering accounts receivable records.
