WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Appalachian Underwriters, Inc. ("AUI"), a leading insurance wholesaler based in Oak Ridge, TN, specializing in Workers Compensation, Commercial Specialty, Personal Lines, and Brokerage business, is expanding its digital payments offering with Input 1's digital billing and payments solution.
