Description

PATTERSON, Judge. Walter Keith purchased two policies of health insurance from Georgia Life and Health Insurance Company (Georgia Life) through
its agent, B.E.W. Insurance Group, Inc. (B.E.W.). His wife, Ellen Keith, a covered dependent under the policies, sustained
injuries when she fell in a Revco Drug Store. The Keiths submitted various medical bills to Georgia Life, but Georgia Life
rejected some of the bills for lack of coverage. On February 13, 1989, the Keiths sued Georgia Life and B.E.W. in a single
two-count action. Count I sought relief against Georgia Life for breach of the insurance contracts. Count II sought relief
against B.E.W. for negligence in failing to obtain from Georgia Life certain coverage that Walter Keith had requested and
which B.E.W. represented was provided in the policies purchased.
