Insurer Annual Report Card Rule Workshop Rescheduled for August 6

Jul 8, 2009

 

The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation Rule Development Workshop on proposed Rule 690-236.001 relating to insurer Annual Report Cards that was scheduled for today has been rescheduled for August 6, 2009.

The proposed Rule would adopt an Annual Report Card for authorized personal residential property insurers to be used by the Office of the Florida Insurance Consumer Advocate as required by State law.

The Annual Report Card would incorporate a form and a letter-grade scale that would evaluate each insurer on the following factors:

  • The number and nature of consumer complaints, stated as a market share ratio, received by the Florida Department of Financial Services (“DFS”) against the insurer;
  • The disposition of all related complaints received by the DFS;
  • The average length of time for payment of claims by the insurer; and
  • Any other factors identified as assisting policyholders in making informed choices about homeowner’s insurance.
