            Communication 
              Associates is one New York business that has started the new 
              year off right by adding Physicians' Reciprocal Insurers (PRI), 
              a Long Island-based malpractice insurance company, to its growing 
              family of clients. 
            PRI is among 
              the top 12 carriers in the nation and the second-largest malpractice 
              insurance carrier in New York state. 
            Competing 
              with three other advertising agencies for the account, David Rampulla, 
              CA 
              president, felt that "what separated us from the rest was the 
              background knowledge we obtained by speaking with physicians on 
              what they wanted most from an insurer." 
            Jennifer 
              Loviglio, PRI's marketing coordinator, said, "We were extremely 
              happy with the creative ideas they submitted and the research they 
              conducted in our market. They [  CA ] 
              showed they were hardworking and eager to do a good job; we're very 
              excited."
