Insurance [Abstract]
Insurance Assessments	Insurance Assessments We are required to participate in statutorily created insolvency guarantee, weather-related loss protection associations, and second-injury funds in all states in the U.S. where we are authorized to transact business. These associations were formed for the purpose of paying the claims of insolvent companies. We are assessed a pro-rata share of such claims based upon our premium writings, subject to a maximum annual assessment per line of insurance. Certain of these assessments can be recovered through premium tax offsets or policy surcharges. We do not believe that assessments on current insolvencies will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We have accrued assessments of $6.9 million and $6.4 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
