Bill Summary
Insurance; insurers; denying coverage based on gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation; prohibit. Amends sec. 2027 of 1956 PA 218 (MCL 500.2027).
AI Summary
This bill amends the Insurance Code of 1956 to prohibit insurance companies from denying coverage or charging different rates based on a person's gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation, except where the rate differential is based on sound actuarial principles and related to actual or reasonably anticipated loss statistics. It also prohibits denying coverage solely because the applicant was previously denied insurance by another insurer. The bill updates terminology by replacing the word "commissioner" with "director" when referring to the head of the state insurance department.
