                          Creates Florida-Based TPA

    CHICAGO, Oct. 13 -- CCC Information Services, Inc.
, announced today that its subsidiary CCC Consumer Services,
Inc., has acquired Florida-based Fleming & Hall Administrators, a third-party

administrative experience offers them a comprehensive solution not previously
available in the Southeast TPA marketplace."

regional processing strategy," said Blaine Ornburg, President of CCC Consumer

Its assets will contribute significantly to CCC's ability to serve the auto
claims industry in Florida, the nation's fourth-largest automotive insurance
market.
    "We now have regionalized processing facilities and knowledge workers in
South Dakota, Michigan and California as well as Florida," Ornburg added.
"Our growing resources will only help us provide more responsive service and

of our clients' policyholders show to be in the range of 94 percent."
