Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the insurance law, in relation to supplemental uninsured/underinsured insurance; and to amend chapter 490 of the laws of 2017 amending the insurance law relating to limits on certain supplementary insurance, in relation to extending the provisions thereof

AI Summary

This bill amends the insurance law to ensure that supplemental uninsured/underinsured (SUM) insurance coverage is included in certain motor vehicle liability insurance policies, unless the insured elects in writing to decline or select a lower amount of coverage. The bill also extends the provisions relating to SUM coverage until June 30, 2026. Importantly, the bill requires insurers to notify insureds that their policy includes SUM coverage equal to their bodily injury liability limits, unless they decline or select a lower amount in writing. Failure by the insurance carrier to maintain and provide the required form will result in the policy being read to include the maximum SUM coverage available.
