AI Summary
This bill aims to reform the labor rates paid by insurance companies to auto repairers in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It establishes an auto body labor rate advisory board within the division of insurance to oversee a biennial survey and make recommendations for a fair and equitable labor rate. The bill also requires the insurance commissioner to set a minimum hourly labor rate of at least $55 that insurers must pay on insured claims for repairs made by registered motor vehicle repair shops. Additionally, the bill specifies that the collision repair hourly labor rates set under this new law shall not be included when considering programs to control costs and expenses under existing insurance laws.
