Multiple Connecticut health care facilities claimed losses to their insurance companies after suspending their business operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

But the Connecticut Supreme Court upheld the defendants' denial of the claims, a reflection of many cases involving COVID-19 and insurance policies.

The plaintiffs, Connecticut Dermatology Group, Live Every Day and Ear Specialty Group of Connecticut, had identical policies with the defendants, Twin City Fire Insurance Co., Sentinel Insurance Co., Hartford Fire Insurance Co. and the Hartford Financial Services Group.
