Bill Summary

AN ACT To enact R.S. 22:1339, relative to the inspection of properties insured by a homeowner's policy; to provide for the use of aerial images to inspect properties; to provide for definitions; to provide for an effective date; and to provide for related matters.

AI Summary

This bill enacts a new law (R.S. 22:1339) that allows insurers to use aerial images, including satellite photos, to inspect insured properties, but limits the use of such images to those taken within 24 months of the cancellation or non-renewal of a homeowner's insurance policy. The bill defines "aerial images" to include pictures, recordings, or other physical evidence captured from aircraft or other airborne platforms, including third-party proprietary aerial imagery and satellite photos. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for insurers to inspect properties while also placing restrictions on the age of the aerial images used as the basis for policy decisions.
