Bill Summary

To establish minimum reimbursement rate to insurance claimants

AI Summary

This bill establishes a minimum reimbursement rate that insurance companies must pay to registered motor vehicle repair shops for insured claims. It creates an auto body labor rate advisory board within the Division of Insurance, which will conduct an annual survey to collect industry data and make recommendations for a fair and equitable labor rate. The commissioner of insurance must then set a minimum hourly labor rate that is not less than $55, which will go into effect 30 days after it is set. The bill is based on the recommendations of a special commission that was tasked with studying auto body labor rates in the Commonwealth.
